Informed contributors observed that variety in Yoruba font styles is neither bad nor unique among font styles available for many other languages generally worldwide. It appears reasonable and practicable in contemporary Yoruba to accept the suggestions for a "standard" Yoruba using the dot under "E,e"; "O,o"; "S,s" and a "classical" Yoruba using the vertical  line under  "E,e" ; "O,o"; "S,s" . The drive is to get the same code assigned to these two styles of the same letter leaving the installed font to render it one way or the other as per the underlying chosen style of the font. This should facilitate the development and better distribution of many more user friendly UNICODE COMPATIBLE YORUBA PRODUCTS AND SERVICES for the good of all Yoruba Language stakeholders worldwide.
