Tho the wikipedia article may be unsourced, but you can read about the
Claudian letters in Hans Jensen, Die Schrift (in german) which is a
scholar work and rock solid.
An interesting question occurs: The Claudian latin letters were in use and
dissappeared before the latin alphabet became bicameral. If they become
encoded into UNicode (and I am sure, they should do so), what about case?
