Dear Dennis,

I would like to contribute to all. I'm OK to take a look at all three if
that's helpful.

Thanks,

Meikal

Dear Latin GP,



The worksheets for cross-script analysis are ready, as follows:



   - Cyrillic:
   https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1_AvaG3vgNsozyNs1Cj68HivcWmV7HRwwXz4k9sN9sGs/edit?usp=sharing



   - Greek:
   https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1EK9HdI64HXvhGP8XkV9ZSZhePVRWPBxBDXIdLB220zk/edit?usp=sharing



   - Armenian:
   https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1SpC8hHecvohEeBveFBQz0Fw7wQAxE9HG9Bu-nwVuL74/edit?usp=sharing



I recommend we start with Cyrillic and Greek, as these can be worked on
Google Docs directly. Armenian script support is limited to one font, so we
need to decide whether to continue doing the analysis in Google Docs
(preferred method because of collaboration features) or do it offline in
Excel and then merge the different inputs (more work but doable, I think).



*CALL TO ACTION*: Please respond to this email if you can help do the
cross-script analysis. You can sign-up for one or for all, let me know. The
mechanics is very simple:

   1. Each code point needs to be inspected twice by different people. A
   score needs to be assigned for each font type (Times, Arial and Courier).
   At the end of each inspection there should be 3 distinct score inputs
   (Column J for first inspection or Column L for second inspection).
   2. The Scoring System is defined as follows:


   - 1 = Identical = the two glyphs are identical in design
      - 2 = Nearly Identical = the two glyphs are not exactly identical,
      but the difference may be attributed to font design (Example:
Latin “r” and
      Cyrillic “г”)
      - 3 = Distinguishable = the two glyphs are similar but
      distinguishable from each other
      - 4 = Different = self-explanatory
      - 5 = N/A = this means there is no variant candidate found in Latin
      LGR



If you want to volunteer for this work please answer to this email by no
later than noon Friday 27 Easter Time. I will do my best to leave the
assignments before I go offline for a few days.



Thank you,

Dennis
