Regarding all my accusation, all topics are open to public forum at
Myanmar IT Professionals. This forum is founded by
Christopher Tun, former CEO of Inforithm-Maze and first generation Myanmar Unicode Font design. You can find almost all Myanmar IT perople including Myanmar NLP members.
So false statements are not likely to sustain. The forum has history of deleting topic on pure public slander. So why not chellenge there?

And what are you doing to actively change that image? Nothing? You've
set up your own myanmarwikipedia.org, for instance, so they don't
have to change from your proprietary font to Unicode. Your own
website suggests that you may never support Unicode 5.1:
Here you have attacked Htoo
http://www.zawgyi.org/usr-zawgyi_one-defining_and_defying_the_standard_padauk-about.aspx
claiming "monopolistic practices by sysops". This is offensive and
you should not keep this on your website.
This page
http://www.zawgyi.org/usr-zawgyi_one-going_wrong_with_users_myanmar_wikipedia_(umw)-about.aspx
is full of your false allegations.
This comment http://my.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Sithu015 made by
Okisan on a my.wikipedia.org talk page suggests to me that he should
not be made a sysop, anyway.
On your own front page http://www.zawgyi.org/ you state, wrongly:
"MyWikipedia Myanmar Wikipedia: Now accepting Unicode 5.1 MyWikipedia
has secret plan to skip Unicode 5.1 to Unicode 5.2. Unicode 5.2 is
unheard of, not even Myanmar NLP." This shows that you don't know
what you are talking about. New Myanmar characters will be added in
Unicode 5.2 or 6.0 or whatever it will be called, but they will not
impact the Burmese language; they are for minority languages. Yes,
Unicode fonts supporting the Myanmar script should, in due course,
support these characters. And here along with nonsense about "secret
plans"
http://www.zawgyi.org/usr-zawgyi_one-Myanmar_Wikipedia_Now_accepting_Unicode_5_1-about.aspx
you have simply said that you do not want my.wikipedia.org to migrate
to Unicode 5.1: "removing [Zawgyi] out of Myanmar Wikipedia is
completely unacceptable".
Jimbo, this brings us back to the entente that Andrew and I had about
how to move things forward.
