Reshat Sabiq's requests for two Tatar orthographic variants

[John Cowan]

CE Whitehead scripsit:

Because we don't want to say tt-Latn-ussrlatn, which gives us "Latin"
in two different ways.

> Some of the Greek and Old English characters are included of the Latin-1
> character set  (I guess Old English is more or less accommodated by
> Latin 1).

Less.  Latin-1 doesn't have macrons, which are usually used on OE
long vowels (though acutes are a crude substitute).

> So I do not know what the name should be.

"stalinist"?
