Re: Ancient Greek apostrophe marking elision

[Michael Everson via Unicode]

I’ll be publishing a translation of Alice into Ancient Greek in due course. I 
will absolutely only use U+2019 for the apostrophe. It would be wrong for lots 
of reasons to use U+02BC for this.

Moreover, implementations of U+02BC need to be revised. In the context of 
Polynesian languages, it is impossible to use U+02BC if it is _identical_ to 
U+2019. Readers cannot work out what is what. I will prepare documentation on 
this in due course.
