The Commonwealth Braille & Talking Book Cooperative is pleased to offer a 
proposal for the representation of emoticons in Braille. This proposal offer a 
standard method of representing the emoticons by applying the Unicode names 
and, if available, entity names for the Unicode defined emoticons.

Complete information on this proposal can be found at 
http://www.cbtbc.org/braille/emoticons/index.php

We invite public comments and improvements to this proposal and offer it to the 
various Braille authorities for their consideration.
