    For each section - have an issue per section

    Add what's missing

    for that issue

    And Add what should be expected behavior

    which is more of a requirement

    for that issue

    Background discussion included the following points:

    Vivek: Base Glyphs Definition

    Rules for combined glyphs (conjuncts)

    What works for Devanagari fonts?

    Lot of font foundries came up in 1990s

    None of them picked up Open Type

    they did not know how to use open type tables

    there were no guidelines

    for legal combinations for glyphs

    these font designers could not figure out the open type logic

    Looking at section 2.1

    Encoding Considerations

    a. Unicode overcompensates

    b. over definitions - historical

    c. modern usage

    d. what are the defects

    Unicode provides supplemental chapters

    0931 - character - Nepali, Konkani, Marathi only

    UTR - Text segmentation + Behavior of encodings

    2.2 Font Considerations

    a. What is the Behavior of a character b. Creating a simple
    template for font definitions

    Gap Analysis: Point out problems where prevent people from
    using the web

    outline why this is a problem and whether we are going to do
    something about it

    or not
