Add some historical notes on cairo development, prior to when we began to maintain this NEWS file.
Add pointer to cairographics.org. Fix to use cairo rather than Cairo when not at the beginning of a sentence.
Remove cairo_current_path, cairo_current_path_flat, cairo_text_extents, cairo_glyph_extents, cairo_text_path, and cairo_glyph_path from the TODO list as they have all been implemented now.

Better text support
-------------------
@ -42,3 +42,36 @@ OS X supported - several byte-order issues resolved
Cairo has now been successfully compiled under OS X. Testing revealed
that there were some byte-order problems in the PostScript backend and
the PNG generation in the demos. These have now been resolved.
2003-10
=======
Graydon Hoare <graydon@redhat.com> implemented the first real text
support using Freetype/fontconfig, (previous versions of cairo used
Xft and could only draw text when using an X backend).
2003-09
=======
Graydon Hoare <graydon@redhat.com> added the first real support for
running cairo with a non-render-aware X server.
Jamey Sharp <jamey@minilop.net> virtualized the backend font and
surface interfaces in September, 2003.
2003-06
=======
Xr is renamed cairo to avoid confusion since it no longer had a strict
dependence on X.
2003-05
=======
A new image surface backend is added to Xr. Keith Packard
<keithp@keithp.com> wrote the image compositing code in libic that is
used for the image_surface backend. This code was originally written
as the software fallback for the render extension within the X
server.
2002-06
=======
Carl Worth <cworth@isi.edu> wrote the first lines of Xr, after Keith
Packard <keithp@keithp.com> proposed the plan for a stateful drawing
library in C providing a PostScript-like rendering model.
