Here is an SFD file with revised contours. The revisions are based on the original SFD. See closed pull request #73

Hello again.

In some (all?) of the glyphs that you edited the anchor points have disappeared. How did this happen?

Well, I did the revisions in FontLab 8 and then I copied/pasted all the revised glyphs at once in FontForge. This is the reasons for the changes in the anchors. If I copy/past revised contours one by one and very carefully changing only the old contours with the new ones everything will be OK. Please, let me know whether you agree with my revisions. It is important for me to know whether do you agree with them or not.

I think the idea of cleaning up the contours is fine (is it necessary though? the font passed all of Fontforge and Google validations). But I want to make sure we don't lose some OpenType feature. So I'd have to see some regression testing before we can pull it to master.

@typiconman OK. I'll take care for the OpenType features. I'll export the feature file FEA and will edit it separately in text editor. Then I'll import it again in FontForge or I'll just add any new functions directly in FontForge. It make the work more complicated but I know the final result is of worth.
