You're quite welcome. :-)

Our design goal for the project has been that the software should Just Work,
so we're always glad to hear how close we're getting to that goal. None of
us have ever tried cyrillic fonts, so it's especially gratifying to know
that they do in fact work.
You said it took "a little effort" to get it compiling and running. Are
there any patches you want to submit so that it'll work more smoothly for
you the next time? If so, here's the place to send them.

This project is very much alive, and new features continue to be added with
each release. (Expect a new one shortly.)

It sure would. As with any Open Source project, it's difficult to predict
when specific features will get added, because that depends on the
interests, skills, and time commitments of developers around the world. Of
course, the fastest way to get a particular feature added is to either
submit the necessary patches, or bribe a developer. :-)
We're always glad to steer people to the relevant portions of the codebase
and give advice on how to add features we haven't had time to implement yet.
