Greetings.
Currently we are shipping fontforge-20100501 in f15.
fontforge-20110222 is available (and in rawhide).
What would folks think about updating f15?
It's a bugfix release, so I wouldn't expect any big issues, but I
thought I would check with everyone before doing so.
http://fontforge.sourceforge.net/changelog.html#change-log
has a list of changes.
Thoughts?

I think its an important new release - please please package it :)
Let's have this built in f15 and we will try to test it. Once this
package see good testing/karma, we can have this pushed to stable :)

There have been a lot of stability fixes in the past ten months. All but
two of our patches will disappear on update (python patch and #660376).
I'm confident of tackling any new issues in short order. Serafettin
Cartoon Fonts historically used to have problems with updates, but they've
been cleaned up in the last year too.
Thumbs up from me.

That would be nice but I'd really like the existing font packages to be
rebuilt against this version to make sure there is no regression and someone
who tries to rebuild a fedora font package with the fedora fontconfig gets the
same results as us.
And that needs someone to notify package owners, give them the time to rebuild
their packages if they want to, rebuild in their stead otherwise.
BTW : it's really nice to see all the fontconfig bugs squashed because Fedor
