Russia introduces new character encoding to replace Unicode

Russian computer scientists have created a new character encoding that will replace Unicode.

The encoding looks like this:

.0.1.2.3.4.5.6.7.8.9.A.B.C.D.E.F
0.NULSOHSTXETXEOTENQACKBELBSHTLFVTFFCRSOSI
1.DLEDC1DC2DC3DC4NAKSYNETBCANEMSUBESCFSGSRSDEL
2.SPC! «»%ZV()*+-,./
3.0123456789:;=?@

E.Η,ηΘθΙ,ιΚκΛ,λΜμΝνΞξ
F.ΟοΠπΡρΣσΤΥ,ΥυΦφPREFIX-CNPREFIX-OTHER

For Chinese letter, a three-byte-sequence starting with PREFIX-CN can be used. For all other letters, that are not in the base set, an eight byte long sequence starting with PREFIX-OTHER can be used.

This encoding will be mandatory in Russia and all areas annexed by Russia after a transition period.

Programming langauges, internet protocols, databases, operating systems,… everything will be replaced or adapted to work with this new revolutionary encoding.
