Hello,

I hope that this is the correct place to ask for help, respectively i am 
asking for ideas regarding the developement of an app to solve following 
severe problem:

The standard system font of Android does not support Polytonic Greek / 
Diacritics. As far as i understand the problem this is related to the lack 
of UTF-8 support of Android font. 

Since diacritics are of crucial importance to everyone concerned with 
ancient greek, *Android *devices are de facto *useless *for those.
Obviously there are apps that alleviate the change of system fonts; 
unfortunately not compatible to some devices.

Now, how should one approach that problem?

More information on that 
Problem<http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=26037> (Google 
Code)

I would like to emphasise that i am really suprised by the fact, that 
Android is not able to cope with ancient greek :-)
There definitely is need for action!

Let me assure: This problem is not only near my heart, but everyone's 
dealing with Classics.

Thank you very much in advance!
