28684H looks quite clean to me, Mike, at a glance.

We have two goals here: reproduction/restoration (when necessary).

-and-

"clean" gylph path construction. Every node that's unnecessary adds 1 byte to a character, so imagine what scores of them do the overall saved typeface size.

That's not to say to skimp.

This is also an exercise in ingenuity: how can a shape be expressed accurately with proper control point connections, proper placement of control points, and the correct number.

Tell you what: If I can get some more submissions from others by the weekend, I will take first crack at making the glyphs into a font, and I'll post it, with blank characters being blank. Closing contours and winding path directions are not a problem with FontLab.

Then it's Bill's big chance to critiqué me.
