Re: Re[2]: [edict-jmdict] KanjiSimNet

As Igor mentions, this data has to be freely available for it to be
useful to other free resources and free software.
I am familiar with the IDS approach of decomposing kanji from all
kanji cultures. But this type of XML database is new to me.

GlyphWiki glyphs and fonts may not look to pretty, but is probably the
first free font to include parts of Ext C. as well. It is a
collaborative project, although it seems little known outside of Japan
as of yet.
