Great work! A couple of suggestions though:
- I think stem darkening should be tested without gamma applied for
many reasons. Your monitor might have additional gamma correction
settings, which might be different from mine. Gamma correction works
against you when you render light text on dark background (I wish
ftview could do that). I think that the whole point of stem darkening
is that it is better than gamma correction in this respect.
- Can you perhaps clean up your git repository, so that it looks like
a small number changes without intermediate trial and error fixes?
