Hi,

I have made a sample page at http://www.linuxense.com/oss/render/
explaining the way, as I understand, the rendering of chill in
Malayalam. Can please take a look and see if this is the correct
interpretation of the standards?

Can chill in Malayalam be considered equivalent of independent half
forms in other indic languages? As it has no vowel associated with them
and has an independent glyph associated with them.

Unicode std says " Five sonorant consonants merge with the virama when
they appear in syllable-final position". But as I have shown in the
page, chills can from even if it appears in non-final positions. Is my
understanding correct?

If these points are correct, how can they be included in the next
version of Unicode standards?
