3 Years Later, ( 2008.11.29 )

I think the First Sinhala Unicode font is Iskoola pota ( iskpota.ttf ) developed by Microsoft Corporation, 1 Microsoft Way, Redmond, Washington, USA, 98052 in Year 2003. Later distributed with Microsoft Windows Vista.

I am not sure about this but I was using LKLUG font before I encounter Potha font.

Original LKLUG font was not a .ttf font. I am quite sure LKLUG was there in mid 2003.

It seems you do not show responsibility. Still you did not give any
proof that " LKLUG.* " is the first Sinhala Unicode font

This is the official announcement. But it was there even some time before.

I don't exactly know whether it is the first. But it was the first Unicode Sinhala font I encountered.

I didn't see any proof for your argument either :-).

Sapumal.
