The release page only links to 2.2.0:
http://freedesktop.org/software/fontconfig
In my discussions with Keith, he hasn't mentioned that 2.2.0 wasn't the
latest "stable" version. He has mentioned the 2.3.0 pre-releases better
known as 2.2.9x... but I think he said to stick with 2.2.0 because it
was the latest stable release. I could be wrong though.
In any case, it will be much easier to release a newer version of
fontconfig after one is out the door. There is a lot of legwork in
getting this done the first time.
