David, just curious - did you also take into account that if Voynichese is a natural language, then the form in the manuscript will be 600 years different than the forms in the software? For example, here is how English looked when the VMS was written - it's hardly recognizable as the same language:
Wel seyde Salomon in his langage,
`Ne brynge nat every man into thyn hous,'
For herberwynge by nyghte is perilous.
Wel oghte a man avysed for to be,
Whom that be broghte into his pryvetee.
...
If evere sitthe I highte Hogge of Ware,
Herde I a millere bettre yset awerk.
(Canterbury Tales, ca. 1400)
