Brent, I believe you added the FTW build, so I want to double check that you are on board with this (my memory is that the last time I asked you were).

The code has not built in a long time at this point, and has bit-rotted quite a bit. I keep accidentally trying to make changes in Direct2D files as part of refactors only to realize they don't actually compile at all.

Yes, this was a cool idea that I can’t work on at a meaningful level, and that no one else wanted to help with. The code will always be available in the repo, so we could revive it if someone wanted to do so.

Please remove this old code.

Thank you for doing this work!
