We are happy to hear this.

BTW, even if otvalid is not linked to an application, otvalid may be
useful as a standalone validator. e.g. otvalid can validate the font

The code is not completed yet but we have made you wait so long. 
We decide to make the development version public.

Development version gxvalid is available via gnuarch version control 
system. The gnuarch archive is at 

name: address@hidden/freetype2--gxv-mps--0.1
location: http://www.gyve.org/~mpsuzuki/arch-2005.03.22/

This archive includes both Masatake YAMATO and my work.
Our work is synced with freetype official CVS repository;
the archive includes the latest change at freetype development.
