Hello,
I’ve published a FAQ that should answer most of the
questions asked about Bytext on this list, please
start at the homepage: www.bytext.org. Some security
issues and solutions are covered in the FAQ, which
seems to be a hot topic as of late. Instead of
proclaiming “Unicode is not to blame”, it would be a
good idea for Unicode to provide some character
properties that could help an implementation reduce
spoofing. Asmus Freytag has suggested that such an
effort would be impractical for Han script, but as an
informative property it does not need to be perfect,
just useful. Unicode has lots of cross references but
they are not categorized well as to what kind of cross
reference it is, ie whether it is based on glyph
similarity, historic relationship, function, etc.
