About 2 weeks ago, the matter of whether Tonal digits 0-8 and 10 should be
encoded independently from U+0030..U+0039 was debated. I don't feel there was
a clear consensus in the end. Even if you don't have time to maintain CSUR at
the moment, could you please simply give your opinion/decision on this matter
so people can begin using Tonal numbers in documents without risking a change
to the standardized PUA usage? Specifically:
- Whether 0-8 should be encoded independent of U+0030..U+0038
- If not, whether 10 should be encoded independent of U+0039
Thanks,
Luke
