I should not have used the copyleft symbol as an example of the UTC and/or WG2 not wanting to make a social or political statement. I had no basis for making that claim. However, the lack of usage in plain text was an appropriate reason for not encoding it. Like newpi, the copyleft symbol would probably be worth a second look if its proponents could gather enough, and diverse enough, examples of its usage.
