Michael:
You asked me separately about additional Cyrillic characters I
was aware of. These are capital and small GHE with right
descender. I have been given info that suggests other possible
additional needs, but don't know enough about this script to
evaluate this.
The uc/lc ghe with right descender are used for two languages
that I am aware of: Nivkh (aka Gilyak; see http:
//www.sil.org/ethnologue/countries/RusA.html#NIV) and Yupik
(see http://www.sil.org/ethnologue/countries/RusA.html#ESS or
http://www.sil.org/ethnologue/countries/USA.html#ESU). I have
photocopies of some pages from published sources in Yupik
showing examples of these characters.
I'll forward to you (not to the list, unless others request) a
message I sent to Asmus several months ago with further
details.
