Hello Khwann Tai,

	It is my experience of developing MyMyanmar Unicode System (for  
Myanmar Language) that Languages in Myanmar Script blocks of Unicode  
Standards are not conveniently used with non-intelligent keyboard  
layouts created with Microsoft Keyboard Layout Creator. For example, e- 
vowel rearrangement will not work on them. We need to use KeyMan in  
the past. Now, I am developing completely new Input Method that I am  
trying to support all the Languages in our script block. If I can get  
enough information, I will create Shan Input Method supporting  
Spelling Checking, Word Breaking, Romanization, etc. This is far  
better than Keyboard Layout Driver. My conclusion is that it is very  
necessary to work on Software after we get proper Unicode Points or  
otherwise it will not make any difference than using legacy fonts/ 
Keyboard Layouts.
	Thanks you you for information about Kayboard Layouts. I will support  
all three of them in my softwares. About Anawrahta Font, please don't  
worry as we have enough time to test and develop it. And of course, we  
need input from many Shans like you. Thanks you.

Regards,
Htoo Myint Naung
