Hoi,In the past the WMF has funded the creation of a Unicode font. Having a Unicode font is essential when we are to support it in MediaWiki. Not having a fully developed font is what hinders the necessary follow up of projects in SignWriting ie all the signed languages.I do agree that a language with a default script not supported in Unicode is hugely problematic.Thanks,GerardM_______________________________________________On Sun, 14 Apr 2019 at 18:36, Amir E.

Do we indeed require this explicitly, or am I just making things up?Or is it just a de facto practicality—that it's technically difficult to host a language in a script that isn't supposed in Unicode?
