Are we concluding that the Lucene indexing software built into SWORD is so<br>
old that it doesn't support Unicode 4.1 ?<br>
<br>
That's what it's beginning to look like to me.<br>
<br>
Does it even support the *Tagalog* block *1700..170C, 170E..1714* (added<br>
with Unicode 3.2 in March 2002) ?<br>
<br>
