Yes, it would be good for me to start by making a working model.
However, I do not have the facilities to do so, nor indeed much of the
knowledge and skills to do so either.
So I have tried to do what I can in the hope that what I can produce might act
as a catalyst to people wanting to implement the invention in a standardized
manner: the standardization right from the start being very important so that
there is not proprietaryness about what is put into use, in the hope that lots
of people will join in and together produce an elegant and useful implemented
system.
Well as at 2:26 pm United Kingdom time today, Saturday, my pdf document has not
been added into the Unicode Document Register, nor have I received an email
stating that it has been rejected. There is now just over a week to go before
the next Unicode Technical Committee meeting, so it remains to be known as to
whether the document will be discussed by the Unicode Technical Committee at
that meeting.
