I first read it as 6,502 people, but a fractional value makes more sense

@DamonWakes @SnoopJ From the rest of the notes, Mouse seems to represent 0.002 of a Member. Members of the UTC are, I guess, usually companies. I'm not sure which company is a half-member.

Today I learned: A warren of 3,000 mice could take over the Unicode standard. 🐁

@Chip_Unicorn @jamuraa @DamonWakes @SnoopJ 3000 mice in a trench coat voting for addition of the Mouse King emoji

@jamuraa @DamonWakes I believe the way it works is that full or institutional members of the Consortium who are representing at the committee have a full vote, supporting members have a half vote, and other membership levels do not have voting power (with the exception of Mouse).

There's a table of attendance at the bottom of the notes that suggests to me that the half vote at this meeting is from EmojiXpress

That's George from IBM. Horrible elevator accident. He survived, but he's missing the bottom part of his body.

Unsigned Long -> Furpoc

@jamuraa @DamonWakes @SnoopJ There's a table on that page listing the members represented, seems like EmojiXpress is a "Supporting Member" instead of a "Full Member" and probably counts as 0.5

@DamonWakes @SnoopJ I read this as a joke reference to the MOS 6502 processor, a legend amongst microchips.

I was wondering that too. A mouse is DEFINITELY not 0.5 of a person, let alone 0.502. My guess is that the mouse was like 0.043. Which means, we've yet to account for the missing 0.459 of a person!
