Hopeful progress

Two days ago I began a post "While we wait for word on a funding proposal we are not idle." Before I could publish it I got the word - a portion of the funding was approved. Less than half, but enough that the tech team is planning a face to face meeting to bring together and document all the known glitches in our prototype. We have each been testing the performance in a variety of fonts, applications and operating systems. The permutations are finite, but dauntingly numerous. The unpredictability of how formatted email is received is one of our current challenges. Another challenge is deciding the degree to which we will support older, less Unicode-compliant operating systems and software.

The good news, we just may have a Unicode Dene keyboard ready for beta testing by the end of March. Keep watching. This is one of the places we'll advertise for testers.
