    This is awesome — nice find btw. I think though outside of the scope of the Open Baskerville project (though I heartily encourage you to set up a GitHub repository for this for any other persons to join and contribute to).

    Kind regards.

    thanks for your feedback!
    even understanding it's out of the Open Baskervile project, but inside the context of open typefaces from public domain master drawings, i really need help from more skilled people can manage this project - i think i did a humble start, but i'm completelly unable (messy) on managing it...
    Thanks, and kind regards as well

    I’m in exactly the same boat as you nitro. :)

    Hey, what do you think about moving the issue tracking and discussions to open.klepas.org, an Open Atrium instance where we can create groups for the different FOSS type projects, track issues, use shoutboxes, run the equivalent of a small wiki for documents and the like? See http://openatrium.com. (:
