Allocating PUA ranges, precomposed characters, ligatures, oh my. But off-hand I assume they are headed towards the right direction: > Unicode proposal in planning > > People working in the Unicode community have encouraged us to present an official > proposal to Unicode for inclusion of characters needed for the transcription of > medieval sources in the Latin alphabet. We are presently working on a proposal, > and will publish any news on this project here. Maybe the PUA use is just intended as a temporary measure? -- Jarkko Hietaniemi <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
