<p>Oh yeah, and this also brings up something else that's important:
this is a new angle I did not know about before. If Paramount
*had* been listening to me or answering me, I probably would not
have mentioned this in whatever "negotiations" we had or whatever
declaration I got them to sign. I've had a vague idea all along
of what Unicode wanted, and I thought a vague idea was enough, but
now I'm not so sure. If I climb the ladder again and actually get
Paramount to sign something, I don't want to come back here and be
told, "nope, we need them to say something else."</p>
<p>I'll check the official responses in the minutes and all to see
if anything really specific was mentioned, but I don't think it
was ever really spelled out. Can you tell me what you need them
to say? I thought I knew, but it's best to have it out in the
open.</p>
