Just as a note to folks on the list, Tiro Typeworks has developed on behalf
of the Government of Nunavut a new font-family for Inuktitut Syllabics. The
character set of the fonts includes: the full Latin extended plus some
additional character support as well as all syllabic characters currently or
historically used for Inuktitut. The fonts do not currently cover the Cree
or Ojibway subsets, but may do so in the future (contact Tiro for more info
www.tiro.com).

As a note to those who have setup web sites using other syllabic Unicode
fonts I highly encourage you to switch to using the new fonts.

The fonts and more information are available at:
http://www.assembly.nu.ca/unicode/fonts/index.html or in Inuktitut at
http://www.assembly.nu.ca/unicode/fonts/index-iu.html
