Telugu LLLA and RRRA with vowel sign ligatures none

Description Shriramana Sharma 2015-06-08 09:36:22 UTC

Telugu LLLA and RRRA with vowel sign ligatures

Unicode 7.0 encoded 0C34 Telugu Letter LLLA and Unicode 8.0 includes 0C5A Telugu Letter RRRA. I was one of the authors of the original proposals for these characters.

I have attached glyphs for these characters including those of the consonant ligating with the vowels (except for U/UU and vocalic vowels since these can be presented as simple sequences of glyphs and AI since it is based on the glyph for E).

Please add these to Lohit Telugu and the appropriate OT table entries for the vowel sign substitutions.

NOTE: I am proposing a few more characters for Telugu for Vedic. Once Unicode approves I'll attach those glyphs also here.

Excellent. Does it make sense to do this one week before Unicode 8.0 release?
