In regard to expecting the UCC to be used in all future books, I do, unfortunately, foresee a problem. Book publishers won't want to use it because using full color on most pages costs a fortune to print. That is why so many English books use black blue and red with their own idiosyncratic color code. Two colors plus black is cheaper than full color. Please understand that I am not objecting to the BCC or a possible UCC -- I use this by preference in making my own diagrams, and in my self published books. The reason I have self published those books is that I knew a commercial publisher would either refuse it outright in color, or would insist that I go with black only. I've talked to other lacemakers who have written and published books, and they have all told me stories about how impossible it is to get publishers to print books the way lacemakers want them printed. The authors are all with you. But the publishers refuse to budge. The Belgian color code as it is is close enough to universal for me (although I certainly think its universal adoption would be useful). Lorelei
