In the proposal for the addition of characters to the
Canadian Aboriginal Syllabics dated 2008-04-12
(N3437, L2/08-149), several characters have names that inexplicably
include "Carrier". These are:
U+AAF5 Canadian Syllabics Carrier GU
U+AAF8 Canadian Syllabics Carrier JAI
U+AAFA Canadian Syllabics Carrier LAI
None of these characters is or has been used for
Carrier. Carrier writes /Cai/ as Ca-i. Moreover,
the name "Canadian Syllabics Carrier GU" is already
asigned to U+15EF. It looks like these three names reflect somebody's
notes on the Carrier characters that they resemble.
Note that I am only questioning the names. The characters
themselves are, I believe, used for other languages and
should be added. It is just the Carrier connection that
is problematic.
