    We've released v0.11 of vfbLib!
    What began as a reverse engineering project in 2022 now has had a kind of official blessing from Yuri Yarmola of FontLab, who generously let me have a look at his original VFB code.
    I am very grateful, for this has shed light on some intricacies of the format I would probably never have figured out on my own.
