I'd appreciate if someone would put  some effort into figuring out how
to encode the Devnagari font developed by two school students, Avneesh
and  Shivaas, in  Unicode.  The  font is  available for  download from
http://linux-delhi.org/  . Avneesh  and Shivaas  would also  like some
tips  and hints  on  how  to make  their  product  more effective  and
better-looking (ligatures, hinting, whatever you experts do to sharpen
fonts).

Regards,

Raju
