But I didn't choose this. Right now, I am working on a new font,
Salieri, which I hope will be of better quality once it is finished, and
which, if it ever gets swash capitals, will get them according to some
historically-rooted standard, most likely, though we are nowhere near that.

Many thanks for the information, Hraban.
The new Salieri font is being discussed at
https://typedrawers.com/discussion/3627/.
The author is also working with the GFS in a revival of the original
»Heraklit« designed by Hermann Zapf (this thread has some comments about
it: https://typedrawers.com/discussion/3569/).
Just in case anyone is interested,
Pablo
