Philippe If you feel these characters are so important, why don't you work on a proposal instead of suggesting others prioritise this? Few people are actually paid for encoding minority or historical scripts. People usually make proposals out of interest and/or because they need the characters encoded as part of some other work they are doing. Anyway how many unencoded Latin characters, which could not be composed of existing characters plus combining marks and diacritics, do you think there are? - Chris
