Hi,
I think I'm finally done with twin.
There's a bug somewhere with extent calculations, causing some glyphs to be
chopped. Have not looked into that. Any help is appreciated.

Moreover, twin is a full family now. Since it was so easy, I implemented:
* A full range of weights:

* A full range of stretches:

* Oblique, monospace, and smallcaps:

And of course you can mix and match. It all feels like ordering a drink at
the Starbucks now. You can ask for "@cairo:", or:
"@cairo:ultra-light extra-expanded monospace smallcaps oblique"
oh, with whipped cream.
Cheers,
behdad
