Hi,
the features from OpenType fonts are not accesable for all fonts, I tried to use my old test case for Microsofts Cambria fonts and none of the features did work, also kerning is disabled.
I put the files with the result from last year and the latest stable online. http://schuster.wolfgang.googlepages.com/files
IIRC, \Var depends on a very particular way of writing typescripts, and is currently considered deprecated by Hans, and that there is a new way to do things like this using \setfontfeature or something similar. Hans will know for sure (but he at bachotex right now)
This did also happen with [feature=...] in typescripts or with \setfontfeature in a document. A few fonts like Pagella or Linux Libertine work as expected but Cambria is a example where none of both methods work. \Var is really obsolete because \setfontfeature is more powerfull, I wrote my file before \setfontfeature was available and it should nevetheless still work but I don't need it.
