,----[ Quote ]
| ...But there are other standards that go largely unheralded, and
| are developed by consortia that are virtually never in the news,
| despite the vast social and technical significance of the standard
| in question. Perhaps chief among them is the Unicode, created and
| constantly extended by the Unicode Consortium, whose loyal
| and widely distributed team of contributors for the most part
| labor quietly in the background of information technology.
