Those considering submitting a proposal should first determine whether a particular script or character has already been proposed. The identification of the sponsor(s) must be included, along with a postal address and an electronic mail address or phone number. Please consult the Unicode Consortium's Web site (http://www.unicode.org) for the most current guidelines. ...
