Brian,
It hasn't been adopted in America yet and I hope it never is! I sent an
email to Judy Dixon, president of BANA, and she said UEB hadn't been adopted
yet and that everybody would be able to vote on its adoption.
I will oppose it to the end. UEB is an awful code very difficult to learn
and I refuse to unlearn everything I know about reading and writing braille.

Dear Terri and list:
Like it or lump it, UEB is a fact of life and it may be phased in
for general Braille production in the English-speaking world one
of these days.
Reading it won't be that difficult, if you aren't interested in
all of the font and such indicators, but you will probably want
to write it by composing your original in text and translating it
into UEB.
At least for a while!
Brian
