(a) It is not registered as "Unicode Consortium"
so it is not officially "Unicode Consortium".
(b) It is not registered as international institute either.
(c) "Unicode Consortium" is not registered as trade mark either.
But it is registered as Unicode Inc which is a private company in
California, and "Unicode" is registered as trademark.
I welcome you to prove me wrong show evidences.

You shall do so as and when you can get the information I asked for.
You also want to find out why your critical message on Greek script was
censored in unicode.org mail-arch -- check your inbox I sent you an email
long ago on this censorship and compare http://unicode.org/mail-arch/ to
know ):
Unicode Inc does not have transparent information policy.
Don't you accept?
Why didn't it make information available on Latin script?
Why did it censor your message showing Greek script?
(But then any who responded against what you wrote were not censored).
What is the policy it is using?
Great to know you are volunteering.
Most who will make profit from your work will be IT monsters like Google
Inc, Microsoft, Apple Inc, IBM ... :)
Google will advertise in most country languages
e.g. http://groups.google.com/group/unicode
> gives you a right to accuse us of conspiracy?
am not accusing anybody, but looking for information.
In the United Kingdom, it is the "freedom of information" that gives me
right to information I had asked in the past.
Thanks,

Nearly correct. "Unicode Consortium" is a trade mark, but not _just_ a
trademark.

No, it is utterly incorrect. You can find the membership list of the
Unicode Consortium at
http://www.unicode.org/consortium/memblogo.html
Really, you need to learn Web site navigation and Google, which will
mean that you don't have to ask us questions that you can trivially
answer for yourself.

Links or we can't discuss it. It is correct in English, which is the
language of the text of the ISO standard.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bengali_script
The Bengali script (Bengali: বাংলা লিপি bangla lipi or Bengali:
বঙ্গলিপি bôņgôlipi) is the writing system for the Bengali language.

The governments of India and Bangladesh are members of the Unicode
Consortium.

Have you even noticed my signature? I work with One Laptop Per Child
and Sugar Labs recruiting volunteers to work in more than a hundred
languages, including Bangla.
What do you do that gives you a right to accuse us of conspiracy? As
far as I can tell from what you have written, you are just another
bloody-minded ignoramus who would rather complain than join in the
work. I would be pleased if you could prove that impression wrong.
