Dear Udaya sir,

Thank you for your comments.

You have raised a couple of points:

1. Interchangeable use of 0919 i.e. ङ and 0921 i.e. ड / ড and ড় :

Yes, it is something we may need to discuss and debate upon. In the ICANN context it is termed as a "visually confusing" set of characters. As per the mandate of this Root LGR procedure, these set of variants are to be taken care of by a different procedure known as "String Similarity Assessment". However we can collate all such cases and incorporate them in the report, which further can be discussed with the IP and/or taken to the String Similarity Assessment Panel.

2. Regarding the use of ঙ and ঞ / ङ and ञ:

Could you please elaborate more on this sir? Is your point related to variance or usage in general? Accordingly we can take the discussion forward.

With regards,

Akshat

The Maithili chart as prepared looks perfectly fine except that those engaged in phishing could still use 0919 and 0921 interchangeably - which I do not know how one could take care of. In Bangla today, the letters ঙ and ঞ may be used much less now but Maithili uses both ङ and ञ very frequently. This problem is parallel to Bengali lookalikes ড and ড় which are very frequently used letters both.

Dear All,
We have created an initial set of code-point repertoire for Maithili.
Your feedback/comments are solicited.
We have planned to finalize the Maithili code-point repertoire by 15th of July '16, so your early responses would enable the detailed discussions and timely finalization.
