Here is a freeware Plane One font for testing:
http://home.att.net/~jameskass/code2001.htm

Included are Old Italic, Deseret, and Gothic, as well as a few other
items extrapolated from the Roadmap and preliminary proposals.
Constructive comments are welcome. (I know that the math
letter variants are incomplete.) It works in W2K with the
word processor, but haven't been able to display any
supplementary characters in the HTML browser yet.

As far as keyboards/IME, if anyone has a notion of what a Deseret
or Gothic keyboard should look like (and a need for one), please
let me know.

Best regards,

James Kass.
