Hi, I’m a bit late: Last week the Unicode consortium released the latest version of their nowadays mostly-emoji standard.

Just for the record: it is not true at all that Unicode is “mostly emojis” nowadays. Even today, the vast majority of characters added each year is 90% non-emoji. I make this point at every ConTeXt meeting I attend, but it really seems nobody is listening ;-)

I’m aware, just joking around. But we get new emojis all the time but AFAIK there are still characters/glyphs or whole scripting systems missing. (Didn’t research: What’s the status of hieroglyphs and cuneiform?) Best, Hraban
