Reality is different. People love Zawgyi (non-gov) over Unicode 5.1 (gov). People don't know usefulness of Unicode 5.1, but just know it does't look good. Frankly I don't think people will install Unicode 5.1 font, unless there is a change of image.
Yes, that is most important.
I understand that Zawgyi is a better looking font today?
No bias. True.
And that the actual developer of the glyphs has agreed that they can be ported over to the Unicode 5.1 font set?
I would like to explain at length about this issue. Please see in my next mail.
How long will that take?
Possibily, it has been done by MyMyanmar.
Who can do it?
Zaw Win Myat + (MyMyamamr or Solvere)
How can I support that work?
Money
I am very disappointment that Mr Jimbo Wales and Mr Micheal Everson think that people will migrate to 5.1 just by tell them 5.1 is better then Zawgyi.
I don't think that. That's why I support that my.wikipedia.org should have a solution which supports everyone for now, and encourages people to upgrade as soon as they can. :)
I see. Great although late.
*People will not imgrate to 5.1 just because of 5.1 is better. People need trust and love.*
Okisan
I agree with that completely. Will you help me help people build that trust and love?
I had a reason for hate on 5.1. Please see my next mail.
You could start by retracting some of the false claims you have made against others.
No. I don't make false claims. Everybody has right to express.
