    Interesting.

    Asmus obviously read the earlier post as suggesting that fonts sould
    just put the new logo at the cp the old logo currently occupies.

    I read the earlier post as suggesting that <U+3004><U+FE00> should be
    used to specify the new glyph.
    (That is <JAPANESE INDUSTRIAL STANDARD SYMBOL><VARIATION SELECTOR-1>.)

    I wonder which of those the earlier poster actually meant?
