This doesn't really meet what Unicode needs. Keeping journals is a personal use, and writing notes is a point-to-point use. What we need is something resembling publishing: a book, a journal, a newsletter. Something where in order to computerize it, people have to agree on the encoding who can't make person-to-person agreements. > It *is* a c-and-e problem, as I've said just now.
