Collating Sequence
What is your script's collating sequence? Is there any specific reason you chose that sequence? Has this sequence changed at all since you first created your script? Why?

I've only just started to think about this, but most likely, it will involve a stroke count as in Chinese, placing most of the tsolu/alphabet right at the start, with the less common, and thus teitha/logoglyph-less, words. An alternate scheme is to go purely alphabetic, in which case the order will be based on some sort of famous poem or prayer which uses all of the alpahbet in a single sentence/stanza. like the "quick brown fox" things (I can't remember the name for those). I may even do a combination of both, allowing the later scheme, which is purely alphabetic, to be an influence.
