Dear all,

 

Unicode keeps receiving proposals for encoding scripts from both past and 
present India and I thought it might be valuable to reach out and encourage 
feedback from the Indology community.

 

One of the proposed scripts for encoding is for Pabuchi, a script used for 
writing Sirmauri and Mahasui languages used by astrologers in Himachal Pradesh. 
Is anybody familiar or have any contacts with this community? I would like to 
independently verify some of the claims made in the proposal, especially since 
the knowledge of the script has traditionally been considered sacred and not 
for sharing.

 

Another proposal we would be looking for feedback on is Ranjana (unified with 
Lantsa) for writing Sanskrit, Newar and other local languages. The proposal is 
available at https://www.unicode.org/L2/L2023/23028-ranjana.pdf.

 

Feel free to respond in the group or reach out to me offline if you had any 
comments or suggestions.

 

Thank you and best regards,

Jan
