Welcome, and thank you for agreeing to join the public-i18n-mongolian list! On this list we will discuss how to harmonize the handling of variant forms in Mongolian. We will use http://r12a.github.io/scripts/mongolian/variants to identify items that need discussion, and to record decisions. Shortly, Greg Eck will send out an initial topic for discussion. Here are just a few notes that may be helpful. First, please bear in mind that the archive for this list is visible to the public at https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-i18n-mongolian/. There may also be emails from time to time that deal with other aspects of Mongolian typography on the Web. You are welcome to either ignore those, or contribute to the discussion. Please try to write in English, however if it is problematic to do so, you can write in a language such as Chinese. In that case, however, other people on the list should try to ensure that the message is summarised in English, so that it is accessible to those who don't speak that language. At the end of this message I list the current participants on the list. By the way, we have people on the list who are in regular contact with Professor Quejingzhabu. I look forward to a productive discussion, and to the day when we have a standard way to represent all positional forms with variant selectors. Best regards, Richard (Ishida) ===================================== List participants: Likely participants in the variant discussion: Aaron Bell, Andrew Glass, Andrew West, Badral Sanlig, Erdenechimeg Myatav, Eerdengshaola (my transcription of 额尔登昭拉, may be incorrect!), Greg Eck, Haoriwa (Horvo), Hu Qitu, Kamal Mansour, Jianchun Lu, Jinbao Liang, Mr Jirimutu, Ourileke Ou (Orlog), Prof. Nashunwuritu, Richard Ishida, Mr SiqinBilig, Toshi Omagari, YuXin Wang, Zhuang Chen I also contacted the following people, who are not yet on the list (but are copied on this message): Prof. Quejingzhabu Mr Husele, from MenkhSoft Mr Kai, from Xenotype Tech Additional subscribers, who are likely to follow at a distance: Addison Phillips, Anqi Li, Chunming Hu, Martin Dürst, Junichi Chiba, Xiaoqian Wu Participants represent the following organisations: - Microsoft - Bolorsoft - Almas - FangZhen - Monotype/Noto - Jade Bird - Unicode - World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) - CESI - Information Technology Research Institute, Inner Mongolian Autonomous Regional Ethnic Affairs Committee - School of Mongolian Studies, Inner Mongolia University - BPS - Beihang University - University of Buffalo
