Very interesting. Thanks. Thinking out loud: I am wondering how complete it is? For example, ISO639 was relatively incomplete a few years back, but now that SIL has taken over management of it, it is complete (or nearly so). Specifically, is there sufficient scripts to cover all the ISO639 languages? For example, Burmese is not part of Unicode yet (SIL translators are working on getting it in). Which script would it use? -- DM _______________________________________________ sword-devel mailing list: sword-devel@crosswire.org http://www.crosswire.org/mailman/listinfo/sword-devel Instructions to unsubscribe/change your settings at above page
