I guess I need to clarify, since someone has already asked (much to my
amazement and chagrin):
The "Doug" who is posting from <UList at dfa dash mail dot com> is *NOT*
the same person as me.
I am not using an alternative name or e-mail ID to post contrarian or
"devil's advocate" views, and never have. When I have contrarian views,
I post them under my real name.
The only e-mail address I have used in the past 3 years for posting to
the Unicode list, or other public mailing lists, is <dewell at adelphia
dot net>.
As far as the specific issues go, I do not support the use of either
variation selectors or language tags (Plane 14 or otherwise) to change
the identity of a character (e.g from one script to another), and I
believe that any change in the established mechanisms of Unicode should
be achieved through sound technical arguments rather than "grass-roots
revolution."
