</div>I admit that there is a chance of mis-interpretation of a project<br>
idea. Which is one of the reasons during the IRC conversation and, the<br>
conversation on this mailing list that I indicated that you take a<br>
look at how an existing project attempts to solve the problem.<br>
<br>
That would perhaps be an indication of what the organization thinks<br>
the end objective of the idea would be.<br>

<br>
</div>Let me ask again - have you had the time to look at the project?<br>
<div class="im"><br>

<br>
</div>At this stage I can suggest that you re-write the title of your<br>
proposal. If we are to assess the submitted proposal in alignment with<br>
the title then we have an expectation mis-match. A new title would<br>
obviate this hurdle and, we can thereafter assess whether such a<br>
proposal fits into the focus this year.<br>
<br>
Additionally, a proposal needs more detail than what your current<br>
submission has. I have suggested a few improvements, I hope you will<br>
work on them.<br>
<div class="im"><br>
> This can be taken as an application of the findings of a project with a name<br>
> "A method/tool for assessing the coverage of a font in terms of glyphs for a<br>
> language". I do not thing there is anything wrong with it or<br>
<br>
</div>To repeat - our interpretation of the project title is at odds with<br>
your interpretation. I have clearly explained what we mean by the<br>
title and, what could be the scope. I would leave it to you to decide<br>
how you want to proceed further.<br>
