I didn't express an opinion there as you seemingly assumed. I just stated that it ended up becoming controversial and this can be seen by referring to the documents and historical records of the meetings discussing the subject. One could see what I'm talking about if they at least skim through the blog post I linked to in my comment.

Also, controversy is not a comparative matter (and this one indeed is an opinion).

Edit: Grammar.




I'm not accusing you of anything. I just think it's ridiculous for the Unicode people and others to have such a double standard. It harms tibetans, and it shows a disturbing political bias.


I don't know what you're referring to. I'm not here to defend Unicode Consortium (there's no such a thing as "Unicode people"), but disturbing as it may seem to the rest of us, any organization has its own political biases. Probably you should start a better detailed thread on the mailing list about your concerns. That would be a more appropriate forum for discussing your concerns.
