[tlhIngan Hol] pIqaD in Unicode--again

[Michael Roney, Jr.]

My only issue is that you have the script name listed as "Klingon" and not
"pIqaD".

I would have also mentioned the full page in Metro Ottowa
http://www.klingonwiki.net/En/MetroOttawa


I brought up the topic of pIqaD and Unicode back in April on facebook
(because I could attach pictures).
https://www.facebook.com/groups/LearnKlingon/permalink/995680640540152/
The comments may be of interest to some.

Hopefully pIqaD will get approved and we can move forward.

Keep us posted!
