Hi Martin,

But as has been discussed in
previous mail, in the example at hand, it would be much more helpful for the reader to replace 'For example, "A color display should be able to differentiate 🔴 (U+1F534), 🟢 (U+1F7E2), and 🔵 (U+1F535)."' with 'For example, "A color display should be able to differentiate 🔴 (LARGE RED CIRCLE), 🟢 (LARGE GREEN CIRCLE), and 🔵 (LARGE BLUE CIRCLE).", because
it saves somebody with a black-and-white display some lookups.

Monochrome displays are rare today, but I would like to hear an opinion on
this from someone who is colour blind.

I'm pretty bad at telling red from green but I know what they are so the
character names are all I need.

I've lost track, have we fixed this to give the RPC discretion to use codes
or names or none depending on what makes sense in context?

I believe that is our plan.

I'm working on a summary of all issues brought out at WGLC.
