Probably Mr Glass wasn't Mr Kaplan's boss, so he is to overtake a legacy without having been involved in its generating.

Indeed there seems to be like a malediction upon the MSKLC. The uppermost problem now is that reputations are linked to the low limit of ligatures length. Supposed the low limit is untrue, then Mr Glass can hardly answer these questions publicly. If he agrees to do so privately, I'll be bound by a secret and will be hindered in providing help for my eventual future keyboard drivers. I don't know how to get out of trouble. If I write on a web page that we can have up to 16 UTF-16 code units per ligature, there can always be somebody starting up who's telling that's wrong and my drivers were a hack. Probably I do end up wishing there would never have been an MSKLC. At least we might think that possibly there is no update because 2.0 would have stuck with that low limit. We hope there will be enough solutions for all Unicode implementations. Best regards, Marcel
