We are aware of that, but most of the time it's just David and me who
work on FreeType.  Right now David is changing jobs which in
consequence means moving to a different continent.  I have other
projects to maintain also, and answering email normally eats up most
of the time I can afford to FreeType.

With other words, we need helping hands.
