RE: Java I18N

This raises an interesting point.  Unlike Braille, the script is not 
encoded and likely won't be as this script doesn't lend itself well to 
digital representation, but a cataloguer exchanging digital records in XML 
would certainly want to note this orthography as part of a collection's 
records.  Would an exception be granted on the ISO 15924 requirements as 
for Phaistos or Rongorongo?

Here's a program that can apparently be used to generate Moon docs, but 
I'm thinking the characters seen in the top-left corner of the web page 
are not truly Moon unless represented in an embossed format.

While Sony Pictures has no immediate plans to release our works in Moon, 
I'm interested to hear the outcome of this question. :)
