Yes, one might be tempted to think that the folks at RunRev took our
three-quarters-of-a-million-dollars and simply went to the beach in
the south of France living it up on good Champagne with nary a thought
about work.
But it seems what's actually happening is far less glamorous - for a
good understand of the scope of their Unicode challenge and the
progress they've been making, see this article from their newsletter:
Slaying the Unicode Monster

Ha, Ha, ha,: charming imagery: and, quite frankly, I think the RunRev
folk, for their work, probably deserve a good 2 weeks at the seaside.
However, I am not referring to RECENTLY, I am referring to the fact that
Mac OS 9 and Windows XP were fully Unicode compliant
donkeys' years ago.
