I think a wiki will be a useful tool for this initiative once it has
matured a little further. Once the broad strokes of the recommendations
for font authoring have been put in place, for example, I think a wiki
would be an excellent environment for those guidelines to be maintained. I
also agree that using version control software to help manage changes is
crucial. I am already using all of these tools to manage the changes to
SMuFL, but at the moment I'm not in a position to open them up to the
community, though I absolutely aim to do so in the future.

While we're at an early stage, however, I think we can manage requirements
and discussion of issues via this mailing list.
