Doug is not the culprit; it was me who wrote that sentence. > No code point is safe. The very reason why I chose the wording "not likely". I have selected U+03A2 with care: this code point covers the place of a non-existing "Greek capital letter final sigma". I think that this code-point -- while, admittedly, unsafe as any other unassigned one -- is rather unlikely to get assigned a character, in the fore- seeable future. Please do not promote an assignation to U+03A2 just do make a point :-) Best wishes, Otto Stolz
