The great politicians will decide this later about the possibility of setting-up a commission who will decide the opportunity to editing the guidelines for a meeting of technodisabled guys that finaly will decide for replacing the letter 'E' by the glyph (a '$' sign merged with the greek Epsilon) they invented and call it the ISO/8859\EURO.1$*EE.
