RE: [SVG1.1F2 LC] Comment regarding Text layout

Sorry I've been away; we've been prepping our platform preview #3.

What is the right answer here?  Is this test incorrect?  I think it is

Hi Sergey & group,

	The full test 'text-text-06-t.svg' is expecting ligature formation _before_ text chunking. You can read the explanation of it in the description of the test. i.e. character->glyph mapping before chunking.

	So there is a contradiction as far as I can tell.

Best regards,
Alex
