Since I cross posted some comp.text contributions to the Polyglot list
which inspired replies, I am posting the replies and some supporting 
material here for the benefit of the original posters.

Well!  It appears that the only problem with Polyglot was that most
people forgot about it!  The distribution of issue 2/1 prompted a
number of responses to the international character set requirements
discussion, which form the bulk of issue 2.  Two announcements
complete the issue.  First, John Koontz forwards a Unicode progress
report from Asmus Freytag.  The final article is an announcement about
work that der Mouse is doing on GNU emacs and 8-bit characters.

Enjoy!  And *please* contribute!  Submissions from various news groups
are welcome.
