You do realize, of course, that any sort of work done with Old Persian
Cuneiform based on N1639 should be limited to laboratory
experimentation. Not only is this script not in Unicode, it's been
relegated to the "under investigation" list, a pool of quicksand from
which few scripts have ever been rescued.
The fact that there's a block in the Roadmap for Old Persian Cuneiform
starting at U+103A0 is no guarantee of anything. Please don't
distribute keyboards or anything else using this proposed encoding, at
least not until it comes *much* closer to acceptance.
