<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;mso-fareast-language:EN-US">Let me clarify my last message: I was responding to a statement you had made in your previous message:<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;mso-fareast-language:EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;mso-fareast-language:EN-US">></span> I suspect there is some lobbying involved. This is potentially dangerous because of the possibility that lobbying will eventually affect the interpretation of stability
policies, which would effectively result in actual compatibility breaking changes.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I take this concern seriously. As Doug Ewell has just suggested, this appears to be an accusation of malfeasance.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">However, I have seen no evidence of any _<i>lobbying</i>_ against the proposal in L2/25-037. It was reviewed by experts in the UTC Script Encoding Working Group (SEW) who concluded that they did find convincing evidence of a need to encode
any additional characters. The SEW recommendations were then review by UTC which did not find differently. There were no other lobbyists.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Nobody else here has been discussing this topic besides you, me and Gabriel Tellez who stated, “None of those listed are differences in plain text…”, which aligns with what the SEW concluded. That single comment isn’t what I’d call lobbying.
My prior comments on your statements have only been that emoji and source separation are not relevant to this topic; and I did not materially contribute to the SEW recommendations on L2/25-037; so I don’t see myself to be lobbying. You have continued to speak
up in defense of L2/25-037 (as is your prerogative); that is the only activity I’ve seen that resembles lobbying.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">As Doug Ewell also very wisely said, accusing others of malfeasance “is usually not an effective way to influence encoding decisions.”<o:p></o:p></p>
