You may find the source here:
        http://quickfur.yi.org:8080/~hsteoh/conlang/tekwari2.tex

Sanity warning, though: when I said I went overboard with it, I really
mean, *overboard*. Don't faint when you see the source. :-P

As for the ogonek placement problem under the v, I don't know how ogoneks
are supposed to be written; I was just using TIPA's ogonek macro. One
could, of course, create a macro that introduces whatever spacing
adjustment one might want to it so that it appears in the "right place".
My first impression, though, is that the current position of the ogonek is
deliberate, to distinguish it from the cedilla which does join the
character at the center of its base.
