Who pays for the UI to be developed? If open source/community, then chronically starved for resources and contributors have divided directions. If commercial, then they want to differentiate and do embrace, extend, extinguish, in order

All operating systems have the unicode database saved somewhere. There should just be a standard way of accessing it. Just like filesystem. Edit; that is; it does not have to be linked in the standard lib. Can be a data file somewhere, or a

Is there any way that you could filter our bad faith stealing requests by stalkers? Eg, put tracker named backbag on victim, reguest full tracking on bagpack. I cant see how you could remotely filter for that?
