17	properly formatted and positioned glyph output&mdash;for any writing
18	system and language.

53    <note>
54      <para>
55        The current HarfBuzz codebase is versioned 2.x.x and is stable
56	and under active maintenance. This is what is used in latest
57	versions of Firefox, GNOME, ChromeOS, Chrome, LibreOffice,
58	XeTeX, Android, and KDE, among other places.
59      </para>
60      <para>
61        Prior to 2012, the original HarfBuzz codebase (which, these
62	days, is referred to as <emphasis>harfbuzz-old</emphasis>) was
63        derived from code in <ulink
64	url="http://freetype.org/">FreeType</ulink>, <ulink
65	url="http://pango.org/">Pango</ulink>, and
66        <ulink url="http://qt-project.org/">Qt</ulink>.
67        It is <emphasis>not</emphasis> actively developed or
68	maintained, and is extremely buggy. All users of harfbuzz-old
69	are encouraged to switch over to the new HarfBuzz as soon as possible.
70      </para>
71      <para>
72	To make this distinction clearer in discussions, the current
73	HarfBuzz codebase is sometimes referred to as
74	<emphasis>harfbuzz-ng</emphasis>.
75      </para>
76      <para>
77	For reference purposes, the harfbuzz-old source tree is archived
78        <ulink
79	    url="http://cgit.freedesktop.org/harfbuzz.old/">here</ulink>. There
80	are no release tarballs of harfbuzz-old whatsoever.
