Hi Michael, If we just had one of two cases where we had decided Variant, and a half dozen where we had decided Not a Variant, I might agree. But the substantial bulk of our decisions were for Variant. So that seems like the way to go. P.S. Good choice on not talking while driving. People who are on the phone while driving, even with a hands-free phone, scare me.

Dear colleagues,
As requested, I have updated the Proposal (Section 6.7.1) with our decisions for Variants Due To Underlining.
thanks for your work.
I would like to note one small inconsistency in our results. Basic letters are considered variants of the same letter with a cedilla for letters K, L, N, S, and T. But *not* for letters C, M, and O. It seems to me that we really ought to be consistent in this. (As we are for Dot Below, Macron Below, Circumflex Below, Ogonek, etc.)
Good catch. I agree that we should try to be consistent. And in case there is a good reason that requires us to be "inconsistent" we at least have to argue and comment why we handle those seemingly equivalent cases differently. As mentioned last week, I will be in a car driving to a customer during our call and I don't like driving and using the phone (even with a hands-free kit) at the same time. So I won't be able to join. Therefore my vote (in case you need it in this call) for this case: Looking at our original documents my opinion is to not considering base characters and characters with cedilla below as variants.
