Hello Everyone,
I am Harish Raja Selvan from MulticoreWare, India<https://multicorewareinc.=
com/>. We are currently working on enabling native builds of various open-s=
ource libraries for the Windows on ARM (WoA) platform.
I=92d like to start a discussion about extending the FreeType CI pipeline t=
o include Windows on ARM (ARM64) support. I wanted to ask whether setting u=
p a self-hosted Windows on ARM runner would make sense for more comprehensi=
ve testing and long-term stability.
Adding Windows on ARM coverage in CI would help ensure consistent build and=
 test validation on this platform. I=92d be happy to help contribute config=
uration changes if this direction seems reasonable.
Thanks for your time.

Regards,
Harish
