er_ti , et_am for Plan 9 ?

Can someone with AT&T please forward this to the appropriate person who deals 
with character sets and locales.

   -thanks!



Greetings,

  I have read recently about Plan 9 in ``Understanding Japanese Information
Processing'' and have just discovered the homepage and now this news group. 
Great! 

  I am writing to inform you of Fidel script (aka Ethiopian, Ethiopic, Ge'ez)
and let you know that it is a candidate for the address range 1200 - 138F
in Unicode.  A formal announcement is expected later this year from the Unicode
Consortium.  So it is understandable that the script may not have received
attention during Plan 9 development.

  I am a developer for Fidel script based software for Unix platforms and would
like to offer my assistance for developing locales for Fidel under Plan 9.  I
would be available for any technical assistance involving Fidel implementation.
A good example of IM for Fidel is available from Mule (the Multilingual 
extension of Emacs).

Please let me know how I may assist to be certain that Fidel is treated under
Plan 9.

most truely,
