Where are you getting this from? You asserted yesterday that "so many people will embrace a new Fraktur range." I asserted that there was no such demand. Now you say again that lots of people want a separate Fraktur encoding. Since you are the one trying to draw an analogy between Phoenician and Fraktur, in terms of demand for separate encoding, I think the burden is on you to prove that such a demand exists for Fraktur. Otherwise the analogy is pointless. -Doug Ewell Fullerton, California http://users.adelphia.net/~dewell/
