Forwarding on behalf of Deborah Anderson ([email protected]) The following is a link to the preliminary Rañjanā proposal, which has just been posted: https://www.unicode.org/L2/L2023/23028-ranjana.pdf <https://www.unicode.org/L2/L2023/23028-ranjana.pdf>
The document will be revised shortly, based on the following comments from a review from Unicode Script Ad Hoc members: · At the beginning of the document, add content on the benefits of unifying Ranjana and Lantsa, showing sources and making the case that they are more similar than different. · Section 4: identify the rows with names (Ranjana / Lantsa). · Section 4.3 (pages 12-13): the long u glyph is incorrect. · Use Myanmar as the model for naming characters, instead of Tibetan or Zanabazar Square. Rename FINAL RA and FINAL YA to be MEDIAL RA and MEDIAL YA · Add examples from manuscripts. · Show most frequent conjuncts, comparing Ranjana vs. Lantsa. Please feel free to circulate this. Comments on the proposal should be sent to the author Anshuman Pandey at [email protected], cc'ing me. Note; Anshuman Pandey is looking for a better font, in case you are aware of one. With best wishes, Debbie
