Given the frequency that these types of issues come up, I wonder if it would be useful to list a few examples in the FAQ of what would -not- be considered for inclusion in future releases of the standard? For example, I'm guessing that my idea for encoding furniture icons and room positioning indicators so that I could create floor layouts using a text editor, would probably not be accepted. (No doubt because corporate giants are trying to prevent the incredible financial success I would realize if they allowed it.) Perhaps if there were a few (more?) places on the site which explained what Unicode is NOT, it would be easier for people to realize they should build an app to accomplish their goal instead. Examples of innappropriate submissions and explanations of why might help reduce the problem. (Apologies if such a thing does exist on the site... my poking around in the FAQ and the "Submitting Proposals" page didn't find it.) Suzanne Topping BizWonk Inc. [EMAIL PROTECTED]
