Symbols (Issue 240)

Russell: Regarding making fonts from SVGs
… SVG generated from a BMP is inefficient, as it generates a list of independent points, rather than a mathematical equation describing a curve
… May want to consider surveying the Symbol Providers and gauge their thoughts on this symbol-to-font effort
… keep in mind, we only need a normative ID number
… I did not have time to investigate the Ruby-on-Ruby issue

matatk: Are any of the symbols in OpenSymbols - https://www.opensymbols.org/ - SVGs to start with?

<Zakim> matatk, you wanted to ask about SVG symbols

Lionel_Wolberger: Discussing Russel's suggestion, whether we should survey the symbol makers?

matatk: We will want their feedback, once we have more clarity

matatk: We wanted a list of things that we wish to demonstrate
