+Overview of changes leading to 1.4.0
+Thursday, January 5, 2017
+====================================
+
+- Merged "OpenType GX" branch which adds core of support for
+ OpenType 1.8 Font Variations. To that extent, the relevant
+ new API is:
+
+New API:
+hb_font_set_var_coords_normalized()
+
+ with supporting API:
+
+New API:
+HB_OT_LAYOUT_NO_VARIATIONS_INDEX
+hb_ot_layout_table_find_feature_variations()
+hb_ot_layout_feature_with_variations_get_lookups()
+hb_shape_plan_create2()
+hb_shape_plan_create_cached2()
+
+ Currently variations in GSUB/GPOS/GDEF are fully supported,
+ and no other tables are supported. In particular, fvar/avar
+ are NOT supported, hence the hb_font_set_var_coords_normalized()
+ taking normalized coordinates. API to take design coordinates
+ will be added in the future.
+
+ HVAR/VVAR/MVAR support will also be added to hb-ot-font in the
+ future.
+
+- Fix regression in GDEF glyph class processing.
+- Add decompositions for Chakma, Limbu, and Balinese in USE shaper.
+- Misc fixes.
