13 it was approved once already, just retracted after that fact pending further
14 developments in terms of application/developer support (editors not sucking

17 i'd say the work that needs to be done is documentation on how to make it
18 work ... for example, i use nano and know nothing of unicode, so i really
19 have no clue how to verify my work and even if i could verify it, how to
20 rectify a bum editor
