Another possibility is the centering diphthong [yə̯] ([y@_^]), though if I remember correctly, that diphthong in Middle High German developed not from [y] or [ʏ], but from umlauted [uo̯]. But if [oː] could develop into [uo], then a development from [ʏː] into [yə] would seem equally plausible to me. --- grüess mach
