Hi Georg,

I’d prefer to stay with the AFF syntax which is well established.
I wonder if the latest, virtually frozen FontForge supports the current AFF syntax or still uses an earlier version. Before AFF was complete George added the missing functionality but Adobe did not accept his additions. The former luatex support was probably based on George's modifications to the AFF syntax. Hans and Taco know better, but I suppose a newer implementation of AFF in mkiv could be done in lua without touching the binary. But anyway, this may very well be beyond Hans' current plans for font trickery, but it's fun to discuss possibilities.
