Danda disunification (was Re: New Public Review Issue posted)

2004-12-23 Thread James Kass
Public Review Issue # 59 concerning danda and double danda doesn't mention the Limbu script specifically. The double danda, at least, is used in the Limbu script. See the exhibit on page 12 of N2410.PDF. It's also listed in the Limbu punctuation shown on page 16. Best regards, James Kass

I'm not(!) advocating a Bengali FVS, but adding such a beast would in theory overcome Ken's objection about ignorability of variation selectors, as it could have documented behavior that's not generic. However, that's got to be about the second least attractive option imaginable. (Leaving
