Behdad,
this patronizing comment is completely uncalled for. Additionally, it
is off-topic, since the problem in discussion doesn't affect color
rendering using the `FT_LOAD_COLOR' flag. The `FT_Color' structure is
something new, as you certainly know. *Now* is the moment to discuss
its contents before it becomes part of a public header.
Have you actually read what Alexei was asking?
