Hm, but it would be good if you could tell FontForge to autohint the glyphs
because non-Fedora distributions are also using the Lohit fonts. Frankly,
I'm also using the Lohit fonts when I boot up into Windows XP! So I would
prefer the hinting to *not* be distro-dependent.
autohinting does not work well for Indian scripts, so i am bit reluctant to do
it.
But lets add it for newly added characters better to have something rather than
nothing.

Now I have checked whether all the requested changes are done and I observe
that the glyph for TAMIL NUMBER ONE THOUSAND is as yet unchanged in both
Tamil normal and Tamil Classical fonts. Please see the relevant glyph in
attachment #572886 [details].
Can you now check it in svn?
https://fedorahosted.org/lohit/browser/trunk/tamil
Next, I also note that the glyphs for ONE HUNDRED and ONE THOUSAND have
moved somewhat downwards in both fonts. Please correct them to their
original positions.
My bad, while observing support image i thought its little bit below than other
numerals.
corrected it now.

Do you want me to file a separate bug for the one symbol pending UTC
editorial approval?
Yes, new bug will help to keep track.
