I'm not sure who would be in charge of this, but I think it would be useful if the WMF was a liaison member of the Unicode Constortium: http://unicode.org/consortium/memblogo.html
This body makes all sorts of important decisions about the Unicode standard—decisions that affects many aspects of our projects. If an issue were to come up that adversely affected us, we would not have a formal way to object at the moment. Being a liason member gives us official standing with the organization, allowing us to participate alongside Google, Apple, and Microsoft in any Unicode-related discussions that are important to us. Other open sources projects that are currently liaison members: The GNOME Foundation The Mozilla Project OpenOffice.org I'm not sure if there is any fee for becoming a liaison member. The instructions simply say to "contact the Unicode Office for details". Would it be worth contacting them to find out?
