Daniels & Bright also mention the Manichean script in use by the Uighurs. This script is similar in appearance to the Syriac script. Michael Everson's Roadmap to the SMP, Plane 1 of the UCS,  http://www.egt.ie/standards/iso10646/plane1-roadmap-table.html , shows places allocated for both the Uighur and Manichean scripts. However, both are shown as scripts for which detailed proposals have not yet been written.   Charles Cox ----- Original Message ----- From: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Unicode List <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Monday, December 18, 2000 5:57 PM Subject: Re: I have a drem one day I can see th > > On 12/18/2000 11:23:29 AM Kenneth Whistler wrote: > > >The WG2 proposals were for additional *presentation forms* for > >Uighur characters.
