--- Comment #100 from Michael Meeks <michael.meeks at collabora.com> ---
AFAICS the griping about LibreOffice being a volunteer project in the bug is
counter-productive when it comes to interesting volunteer developers in fixing
it - also by now this bug is far too long to read in any tractable time for a
volunteer. I would suggest that we close this bug, and create a series of new
issues. 

Ultimately - I'm fairly convinced that Microsoft's new / DirectWrite rendering
is a performance horror, and that by far the best approach would be to go to
freetype-everywhere. Unfortuantely that is a chunk of work, and leaves us with
some serious printing problems - Windows not providing any sensible print /
output API unfortunately such as eg. PDF (and XPS hardly counts).
