2010-11-24 17:09:31 Paul Sladen description The side of the hook on Ƴ (U+01B3 LATIN CAPITAL LETTER Y WITH HOOK) should be on the right, like for the lowercase ƴ (U+01B4 LATIN SMALL LETTER Y WITH HOOK). Currently the Ubuntu fonts have the hook on the left side. The Unicode charts had the hook on the left, but this was changed for the right as that side is much more common. See http://std.dkuug.dk/JTC1/sc2/wg2/docs/N2859.pdf for rational. Most people using the character are used to have the hook on the right. It is better to have it on that side. The left-hook Ƴ could be available as a alternate glyph but should not be the default.

The left-hook Ƴ could be available as a alternate glyph but should not be the default. A left-hand hook was shown prior to Unicode 4.1, which fixed it and which is documented in the errata notes (search for "hook"): http://unicode.org/versions/Unicode4.1.0/erratafixed.html
