<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt">Hello all,<br>
<br>
I am happy that the SSAC has been so responsive to a point we have raised in Copenhagen and which has been debated in IETF circles. This is quite significant since proponents in the use of emojis have been supported by several large firms that saw this as a
potentially huge new market, completely disregarding the potential for a. lack of universal access and b. misuse, thanks to its very nature.<br>
Once again, full marks for the SSAC!<br>
Kindest regards,<br>
<br>
Olivier<o:p></o:p></p>
