Is it possible to implement some method to tell server both characters are same??
No.
It is heard that more changes coming in future versions of unicode. And now almost half of the data coming is in unicode 5.1 version. I am not sure about reverse converting.
That link you gave in your last post had a conversion table, it looks pretty straightforward:
CHILLU NN -> NNA, VIRAMA, ZWJ CHILLU N -> NA, VIRAMA, ZWJ CHILLU RR -> RA, VIRAMA, ZWJ CHILLU L -> LA, VIRAMA, ZWJ CHILLU LL -> LLA, VIRAMA, ZWJ
The other new characters would remain unconverted.

Hoi, Given that we should be moving forward not backward, it makes more sense to provide Unicode 5.1 characters and webfonts.
The big thing of MediaWiki was that it supported Unicode when this was still a new thing to do. We should support the latest and the best Unicode support.
You did read the post didn't you? Forcing everyone to buy Windows 7 is not generally the way we do things. Unless the client situation is not as bad as it sounds, we will need to have a transition period where we support older clients until their market share falls far lower than 50%, which is where, by Praveen's figures, it is now.
