Subject: [Ext] Request for inclusion three Latin letters in the next version of MSR

Dear IP,

Latin GP requests that the following code points, PVALID in IDNA 2008, but not included in MSR-3 to be included in the upcoming version of MSR. They are planned to be included in our Latin LGR proposal.

ḓ	1E13	LATIN SMALL LETTER D WITH CIRCUMFLEX BELOW
ṋ	1E4B	LATIN SMALL LETTER N WITH CIRCUMFLEX BELOW
ṱ	1E71	LATIN SMALL LETTER T WITH CIRCUMFLEX BELOW

All three code points are used in Venda, an EGIDS 1 language, a Bantu language spoken in South Africa and Zimbabwe. The need of the code points is attested in http://www.omniglot.com/writing/venda.htm [omniglot.com]

In addition to the rating, relevant use of Venda today is also demonstrated by the Venda version of Wikipedia at https://ve.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hayani [ve.wikipedia.org].

Best Regards

Mirjana Tasić
