    I'm not. I can think of a lot of other characters much more needing my
    envolvment (and I'm working on them,, sort of). I have no special
    connection with, nor interest in, these symbols.

    OTOH, anti open-source feelings from the part of some members are showing,
    and that's unbecoming. Not adding a character to the standard because its
    promoters are obnoxious is a not a serious reason: true or not, it should
    not even have been mentioned.
