I offered help, but I don't know how to use metatype, I could just help them set up the Greek Extended glyphs once the proper characters are in place. > > And btw: please tone down your messages a bit. You sound like you are foaming from the mouth, and that's quite unnecessary. As Hans said: all of this is open source, if you hate their style of doing things that much, just develop your own fonts. If people are developing free software, they also have the freedom to do the development exactly as they see fit. Where does this sense of entitlement come from? Just because it is free software doesn't mean one can't criticize them, actually because it is free software I do care about it. I didn't know my tone was that high (well it is usually that high but I don't even notice). Sure I can go and fork it, but it is pity that one have to resort to this to just contribute a bug fix.
