Michael,
Did a little research on Colemak: appears to be (1) as or even slightly
more ergonomic than Dvorak, in terms of measurable results; and (2)
designed for QWERTY users.
That said, were you a QWERTY user before you transitioned into Colemak?
. . .
Does anyone here type Russian characters? I've started learning how to type
the alphabet using Cyrillic stickers on my keyboard, and it /seems/ to be
more ergonomically organized -- but perhaps that is just because I'm
systematically learning it, rather than intuitively, and over many years,
as I did with English QWERTY.
