Notes/Comments/Questions

• • An en:extinct language, but a lively literary and en:liturgical language on Java, Bali, and Lombok.
  • Script issues, Balinese vs Latin, but preferably Latin.
    • Why an issues, the two script would be allowed in kaw. (4 May 2005)
    • If you want an Latin-only-Kawi-wikipedia, propose "kaw-latn" instead. (4 May 2005)
      • You're right, there is no script issue. Both scripts should be allowed. Meursault2004 13:14, 7 May 2005 (UTC)
        • Are there even fonts in the old Javanese language script? If there are, that should be included. Gothic wikipedia uses the old Gothic script. I was surprised Gothic could still be written on computers. If old Javanese fonts do exist, it should be in that script. If not, use Latin.--Fox Mccloud 21:00, 27 August 2006 (UTC)
