That’s crazy. I once lurked in the IRC of the project. I knew the creator. He was a family friend. I was a silly teen kid toying with Linux he was a dev who worked at redhat and lived in the same town as me.

I wonder what he’s up to these days?

Update/edit:

Ahh he moved on to Ampere: https://www.linkedin.com/in/carl-worth

Also I was a bad fan: the library had a co-founder too I thought it was a bespoke creation of Carl’s own making.

I remember building a bunch of stuff from source back in the day and a lot of Linux applications had Cairo as a dependency.
