Greg, et al,
The international community has been haggling about common character
sets for quite awhile. I hear various degrees of hopefulness that
ISO 10646 will be "the" answer. Given that, I am having difficulty
understanding whether MNemonic is solving a different problem or whether
it is directly competitive. If it is competitive, then it is essential
that we, the Internet, be clear about our reasons for going down a
different path.
I also do not understand why an electronic mail working group would be
attempting to establish such a general character set standard. My fear
is that there are others in the Internet, with additional knowledge,
who could contribute to the character set discussion, if only they new
to look for it in an electronic mai working group.
Thoughts?
