I contributed about 200 or 250 glyphs to the bitmapped font built into
SC UniPad, but on no account does that make me a "font designer," much
less a real typographer.

I'm a software developer who periodically deals with
internationalization issues.  I've developed and maintained numerous
text databases.  I have a hobbyist's level of expertise in linguistics
and writing systems, and a decent understanding of coding issues.  I am
not a "linguist" or a "script expert."
