| 15 | ** Objective |
| 16 | Create a convenient "Keyboard - Navajo" input method accessible in |
| 17 | Debian GNU/Linux via the ~ibus~ and ~fcitx5~ input method frameworks. |
| 18 | |
| 19 | ** Scope |
| 20 | - Prioritize development for the Debian GNU/Linux operating system. |
| 21 | - Desired, but lower priority is downstream compatibility (e.g. with Ubuntu or Pop!_OS. |
| 22 | - Do not prioritize support for Windows or macOS. |
| 23 | |
| 24 | ** Strategy |
| 25 | Follow strategy described in the Debian i18n wiki section for [[https://wiki.debian.org/I18n/NorthAmericanIndigenousLanguages][North |
| 26 | American Indigenous Languages]]. |
| 27 | |
| 28 | 1. Create ~.orth~ files for ~fontconfig~ for Navajo. |
| 29 | 2. Submit files to ~fontconfig~ (group?) |
| 30 | 3. Create ~xkb~ keyboard layouts. |
| 31 | 4. Type in locale information. |
