Hi, everybody!
While perusing
http://std.dkuug.dk/jtc1/sc2/wg2/docs/n3514.pdf (Soccer Ball symbol
proposal) I've noticed that on Fig. 4c (page 3) there is an Olympic
rings symbol in the same context as the proposed - and accepted by the
UTC - soccer ball symbol, making it at least as suitable for encoding,
if not more, given its international recognition and appeal.
I find it surprising that it was never* discussed on this list, unless
it is assumed by everybody that an attempt to deal with the Olympic
symbolic without the initiative or pre-approval by the IOC will cause
more trouble than it's worth.
What are your thoughts?
Leo
