Which writing system do you want?
The above mentioned project will hopefully include all the CJKV shapes
as submitted by the IRG members in a distant future. Currently they
include mostly HK, TW and JP shaped glyphs mixed together with some
occasional CN glyphs in between. Work is underway to change that and
provide all glyph shapes in separate virtual fonts. However, the project
is lacking manpower to get this done in a timely manner. Any volunteers
out there? :)
Cheers
