\section{History}
\label{sec:history}
\emph{Old Standard} is a remarkable creation of Alexey Kryukov,
update dates back to Aug.\ 12, 2013. To be more precise, all of the
five \enquote*{commits} the writer was able to see were pushed on the
very same day. Since then, two \enquote*{pull requests} dating back to
-2017 have been remained unanswered. It is therefore to be feared that
-the project has been abandoned. To date, this release of \emph{Old
+2017 have remained unanswered. It is therefore to be feared that the
+project has been abandoned. To date, this release of \emph{Old
Standard} has been published by Nikola Lečić and Bob Tennent and is
available on CTAN and {\TeX}Live with a style file.\footnote{See
\url{https://ctan.org/pkg/oldstandard}}
FontForge, and, as a classicist, he is able to scrutinize how features
operate and if they operate as expected.

\section{Additions and corrections provided}
\label{sec:addit-corr-prov}
This release of \emph{Old Standard} includes new letters and some
in use a century ago in fine books which used font faces very
similar to \emph{Old Standard}. Typical use cases of small capitals
were headers, current headings and in some books proper names.
+\item \emph{For the time being}, a bold italic shape has been
+ auto-generated. Of course, auto-generating shapes is not a
+ satisfactory solution. However, it is better than using the
+ font loader to emulate bold shapes. A real bold italic shape is
+ planned in the versions of \emph{Old Standard} to come.
\item The letter G with caron above, that is: Ǧ (\verb|U+01E6|,
uppercase) and ǧ (\verb|U+01E7|, lowercase) has been added. It is
the only character missing from \emph{Old Standard} that is needed

-\subsection{Bold Italic shape}
-\label{sec:bold-italic-shape}

-both \XeTeX\ and \LuaTeX\ engines can emulate this shape as shown in
-the following two examples:
-
-\begin{tcblisting}{minted options={linenos, numbersep=0mm,
- fontsize=\smaller}, listing only, title=\XeLaTeX}
- \usepackage{fontspec}
- \setmainfont{Old Standard}[
- BoldItalicFont={Old Standard Italic},
- BoldItalicFeatures={FakeBold=1.5}]
-\end{tcblisting}
