UEBC is alive and growing.
I believe that 5 countries have already adopted UEBC.

As the British are modifying their existing codes does this mean that
UEBC is dead in the water?!

-----It's a pity that the US and UK Braille Authorities couldn't get
together in this instance by adopting the same computer braille code
conventions (at least when in literary braille). Did we need another
barrier of confusion like this? I have seen both American and UK
braille publications with computer braille codes in them. The codes are
indeed different!!! I thought we wrote much the same (English)
language, whether in braille or print.

Hi Steve & Karina,
The New BAUK rules with regard to e-mail and web addresses
are going to be serious fun when they finally get
implemented.
1) The recommended method is to transcribe using British
Computer Braille with computer braille indicators.
2) One can optionally leave the BCB indicators out.
3) Then again, "simple" e-mail addresses may also be
transcribed using Grade 1 literary braille to include the
new commercial at sign.
But whatever method you use, it must be used consistently
throughout the document.
When the full new rules are implemented, DBT's default
"compinline" style will convert to the first option above.
That can however be changed by the user.
George.
