    I know, Michael. But there is still a document called the Old Italic
    Proposal (or whatever it was first called Etruscan, Osque, ...). No
    need to be picky, but helpful.

    Since Dean was looking for the way to address multiple writing
    directions in a proposal, I was suggesting him to read the Old Italic
    Proposal which lead into the encoding of Old Italic. He should find
    language there that should suit him since Old Italic shares similar
    properties. Do you have a pointer to this proposal (your,s I believe) ?
    This would have been helpful, but I see Ken has answered the question
    quite well.

    P. A.
