[Egyptian] Correspondence so far

[John Baines]

Dear All
       I've followed this conversation but have not been able to look 
into it in detail, so that and I can't contribute specific comments. 
I should nonetheless like to say that a great deal of care is clearly 
going into the proposal, and the basic structure of what is being 
done is admirable. There will never be complete consensus on all the 
sign identifications and distinctions. Incorporating hieroglyphs 
into Unicode will be an enormous advance in making them usable for 
many purposes, and I am happy to see this being done so well and to 
see the range of contributions that is being made to the process.
