Mirjana,

 

That was an impressive work that you have done. I guess that someone at IP has an interest of Esperanto and therefore saw that it was missing. As you say, in the future characters might be added if someone misses them for some language.

Dear GP members,

 

For those people who were not with us from the beginning. Table with languages which we were processing last two  years was made like this:

 

 

  1. In the year 2015 these days GP chair Chris Dillon asked me to make a table with languages using Latin script
  2. I took the list of languages using Latin script from omniglot.com
  3. I added some columns to that table and filled these columns by hand, using data from www.ethnologue.com
  4. I do not think that anyone has ever checked these table thoroughly. Bill has done some corrections in the beginning.

 

So it is possible that some EGIDS 1-5 languages is missing. But this LGR  will not be holy, it will be changed in the future. If something is missing it could be added later.

On the other hand, if someone wants to check the table with languages he/she  is very welcome.

 

Regards Mirjana

Then, how did we miss Esperanto? Could we have missed other level three languages?

Ethnologue https://www.ethnologue.com/language/epo has Esperanto as EGIDS 3.  I'm not sure I am convinced that it actually deserves that rating.  But that doesn't really matter, since the IP has mandated it's inclusion.

Can we justify the inclusion of Esperanto based on the principles or should we included because IP thinks it should be included?

Subject: [Latingp] Codepoints from Esperanto

 

The following code points occur in Esperanto, but are not previously included in our Repertoire:


Unicode Glyph Unicode Name 0109 ĉ Latin Small Letter C with Circumflex 011D ĝ Latin Small Letter G with Circumflex 0125 ĥ Latin Small Letter H with Circumflex 0135 ĵ Latin Small Letter J with Circumflex 016D ŭ Latin Small Letter U with Breve

 

In addition, we had included
015D ŝ Latin Small Letter S with Circumflex

This in our repertoire, but the only example was from Tswa, which is EGIDS 5 -- which the IP apparently doesn't consider sufficient for inclusion.  So we may want to modify the entry to reflect Esperanto there.
