Call for Papers - Gothic book project

[Kevin Behrens]

Hey, thank you for your answer. What do you ment by fonts? Whether I use fonts on our website? Some sections on the site are not ready yet or have content, so they don't work. I am pretty sorry for that but I have to run that page on my own and there are so many other things I have to do that I don't always find enough time. 
To encode the Gothic script would be pretty useful, espacially on wikipedia for newcomers. I used it on my page 1. because the page is not ready yet and I didn't want to always copy that letter from another site and 2. because this way it is easier for people that don't know any gothic to write in it. But when I find more time, I will do that all over and maybe I'll use "Ƕ" and "ƕ". Thank you for your feedback. ;)
Greets,
Kevin

You are all highly invited to contribute to it with articles or so. Here is the english version of the Call for Papers:



I was interested to see what you're doing with fonts and font design, but many of the links on your site don't work. 



I was slightly disappointed to see you using "Hv" and "hv" in your Neogothic transliteration, instead of "Ƕ" and "ƕ". The lower-case letter was part of Unicode from the beginning; I wrote the proposal to encode the upper-case letter. (I also wrote the proposal to encode the Gothic script itself.)
