Ah, I see. At least it is published as a UNicode draft technical report,
so one can reference it and use it whenever one finds a need for it.
Unfortunately, introducing UNicode means often to reinvent all the wheels
one already has, since the current tools can't handle any of the official
forms of UNicode.

I don't have the time and other ressources to pursue the establishment of
an ISO standard (or official adoption by the UNicode committee), therefore
I choose to publish my idea and open it for everybody who wants to implement.

I've never claimed that utf-7d5 were official, and I hope the wording on
my www pages is clear in this respect.
