Fund Raiser was a Success!
Thank you for your support! The fundraiser to purchase Glyphs was a success. In very little time, I had enough to purchase Glyphs, and have already started work porting the font, adjusting the kerning, and making over-due refinements. Everyone that wanted a ‘q’ with a tail should be happy, because that was just added also. 
You can keep track of my work on git-hub, https://github.com/antijingoist/open-dyslexic.
Also, if you have an iPhone or iPad, you should try out openWeb, which uses the newest versions of the OpenDyslexic typeface, and forces web pages to render using it.
Update: In case you wanted to know, the fundraiser pulled in $390. Thank you all for your support!
Is this font being used with any emergent reader publications? When students have difficulty reading, often dyslexia is a part of the problem. If this font enables those with dyslexia to better decode language, why is it not more mainstream with publishing houses such as Scholastic Books, Houghton Mifflin, Harcourt, etc? This could be a tremendous resource for educational printings.
