Is there, somewhere, a single list of the major organisations involved in
encoding and internationalisation worldwide, with information about their
constitution, mandate, and projects? Even for someone who has been
following discussions here for some years, there is a bewildering
collections of abbreviations and acronyms to keep track of, and I really
don't have time to go and research each individual one to find out what it
stands for, what the organisation or working group does, who is involved,
what they have produced. Sometimes, I'm not even sure if the abbreviation
refers to an organisation or to a specific document or standand. It would
be very useful to be able to visit a single website and get a snapshot of
e.g. IETF or WG2.

If you browse in the shelves that, in American bookstores,
are labeled New Age, you can find there even Saint Augustine,
who, as far as I know, was not a fascist. But combining Saint
Augustine and Stonehenge -- that is a symptom of Ur-Fascism.
