<p>Hi,</p>
<p>I've long been annoyed that there is no Unicode symbol for the
flourish of approval ("krul" or "krulletje"), which is a common
symbol used in the Netherlands, mostly in elemetary schools, but
rarely outside the Netherlands.</p>
<ol>
<li>What is the process for submitting assigning a codepoint to a
symbol currently missing from the Unicode tables?</li>
<li>Has this character (see references below) been proposed
before?</li>
</ol>

<p>Following these links, it is easy to see there is widespread
adoption (with links to NRC, one of the national Dutch newspapers,
or a video made by NTR, a publicly funded television station).</p>
<p>Note: I'm not a linguist, but IT specialist, and had was highly
surprised it's not in Unicode when needed some years ago. The
wikipedia and other articles expressed the same surprise. I came
across this issue again, so I joined the Unicode as member so I
can ask this question.</p>
