Thank you for your proposal. Can you please elaborate a bit about this particular line - More importantly, while laying down the keys one must take into account the symbols for a native language, after all they must also make it to the board.

Amir Aharoni will also pitch in with his inputs about the proposal. --Runab WMF (talk) 19:29, 30 April 2013 (UTC)

The keyboards are developed keeping in mind that letters most frequently used, usually are kept in the home row. So each key on the keyboard represents different placement criteria. Similarly letters which frequently occur together in words are usually kept in hard to reach spots. While creating a virtual keyboard, this all will serve as a very important base. For languages which have characters more than the number of available keys different approach will be adopted. Usually such languages have some basic strokes predefined which can be recreated. It is these strokes that can serve as their basic implementation.
