Rust maintainer perfectionism, or, the tragedy of Alacritty

I did not submit this to Hacker News and did not intend that this post would have high circulation but have no real problem with it being there or with it having such. I have more recent comments below. This post is from January 2020 and predates the Modular Font Editor K (MFEK) project.

I have not worked on Rust projects in quite a while, and don't know if I ever will again. I feel many crate maintainers are way too perfectionist, for example, despite all the developer hours that went into this PR, it took the effort within years to be (halfway) merged.

There's always a reason not to merge, isn't there? It would be better done with a new nightly language feature, or the function signature should have a where clause, or the documentation is not perfect. There's always a new nit to pick in the world of Ru

06:06:35 copypaste this is a stretch, but maybe someone here knows the answer to this question we have about variable font interpolation? and could comment ? https://github.com/fontforge/fontforge/issues/3803#issuecomment-522224005
06:07:01 copypaste basically we just want to know how it's done and whether inkscape's interpolator is the same method
06:08:39 Mc afaik, variable fonts are rendered by harfbuzz or pango
06:12:00 Mc http://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/index.php/Variable_Fonts_support
06:12:19 Mc Pango >= 1.41.1; FreeType >= 2.8
06:12:35 Mc Harfbuzz >= 1.4.2
06:13:59 copypaste ok but
06:14:08 copypaste how do we implement it
06:14:12 copypaste what kind of interpolation is in use
06:15:11 copypaste we (fontforge) also use pango. are you telling me we ought to just make pango do it and not implement the interpolation in fontforge?
