The documents related to language enablement at the W3C continue and expand the work to reorganise information to represent scripts, rather than individual languages. The newly published -lreq documents should be a first port of call for information related to a given script. They point to descriptions about how the scripts work, to tests, to discussions, to type samples, and more, all organised by topic.

The Internationalization Activity has just published the following FPWD documents.

• Perso-Arabic Kashmiri Layout Requirements
• Urdu Layout Requirements
• Uighur Layout Requirements

These languages are all written right-to-left (based on the Arabic script) and are used in India, Pakistan, and Western China. Urdu & Kashmiri are normally written in the nastaliq writing style.

Currently, these documents mostly point to external descriptions of how the script works. They also point to relevant GitHub discussions, tests, and gap reports. This provides a convenient way to access information about a particular script/language when doing gap analysis as part of our language enablement program.
