The ISO / Unicode Merger

I suggest that all of you consider collaborating on creating three (3) pages that link to each other. 1) an overview page with a modern (2003) view of the merger and some background this would link to two 'historical documents', each of which is its own HTML page 2) the Hart memo from 1991 (unedited) 3) the Interview (largely unedited, perhaps a few more notes on personal names) I suggest that document (1) contain one or two 'teaser' excerpts from documents (2) and (3), to make the reader want to go deeper. This structure allows us to later add additional historical documents or personal recollections as they happen (there are a number of 'war stories' out there that have jelled into a semi-fixed form, perhaps we can ferret them out and write them down). A./ PS: as far as Unicode is concerned, we would not want to prevent anyone from using material owned by Unicode to further document the early history of the standard - at least, unless it's note a hostile effort.
