<p>Note to Peter and anyone else with input on the feature
variations draft: I'll need feedback by February 8th or so in
order to turn around a more spec-oriented draft in time for review
before a meeting around the 20th. <br>
</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>I can probably make a February 20th time-frame work but I'm
drafting some additional proposals. One is a small change to CFF2
stem ordering requirements, one is a section to add to VARC about
hinting when composing CFF2 sources.</p>
<p>It may (or may not) make sense to split the discussion across
multiple meetings. We can evaluate that once there are drafts. <br>

<div>During last week, at the SC29/WG3 meeting, the AHG on Font
Format was re-established by the WG3 to conduct our work until
the next WG meeting that will take place on April 22-26. As
usual, the input contribution registration deadline for the
next meeting is Monday, April 15 (a week prior to the
meeting).</div>

<div>The updated AHG mandates approved by the SC29/WG3 are as
follows:</div>
<div><span

should be integrated

applicable) for consideration in the 5<sup>th</sup>

(WG03N01099) will not be available for review until after
the edits are made. This, however, should not stop us from
continuing our work on the second mandate to finalize the
'dmap' table and new "Feature Variations" proposals. I would
like to ask the prospective authors to start preparing the
detailed drafts that can be discussed by the AHG members
online and during our Zoom meetings.</span></div>

<div><span
style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Arial,sans-serif;font-size:13.3333px">As
far as meeting schedule is concerned, I'd suggest to
consider scheduling the first AHG meeting on either Feb. 20
(Tuesday) or Feb. 21 (Wednesday) at our usual time (15:00
UTC) to give authors and the AHG members enough time to work
on the proposals and still have reasonable time left for
follow up discussions. Please let me know (prospective
authors in particular) if you believe this would be a
reasonable timeline for early draft discussions, or if we
should consider postponing the first AHG meeting until the
last week of February. The AHG meetings have to be announced
at least 2 weeks ahead of the meeting date, so we have until
Feb. 6 to decide whether this proposed AHG meeting schedule
would work.</span></div>
