Hi,
There is a proposal to add support for the Ho language to transaltewiki:
https://translatewiki.net/wiki/Thread:Support/Request_to_start_a_new_langua…
.
It is for now not implemented, and the explanation is that the request is
to do it in the Warang Citi writing system, and Ethnologue says that it is
"no longer in use". I strongly suspect that Ethnologue is not quite correct
on this matter, because there are three sources that contradict it:
* the encoding proposal by Michael Everson
* the page at Scriptsource to which Ethnologue itself links
* an article by Norman Zide, linked from Scriptsource
I have no direct knowledge of this language, but the sources above seem
more convincing to me than Ethnologue itself.
The remaining question, however, is whether we should add more than one
variant for this language (hoc-wara, hoc-deva, and perhaps hoc-latn) or
should it be just hoc, and assumed to be written in Warang Citi?
Thanks!
