1. I don't think you've had these conversations as broadly as you remember.

To summarize your position since you didn't mention it here: You
don't want
to use the same emoji as Android because you see the emoji choice as a brand
recognition opportunity. I'm not sure our users will see it the same way.
Again, not the place to discuss this. I discussed this with Allan and Jakub,
who agreed with this choice, Behdad and Akira, who both agreed to give EmojiTwo
time to be built for our purposes, which we hope would happen within the next
year.
Most of those discussions happened nearly a year ago, with much shorter
discussions around GUADEC this year to re-affirm that EmojiOne would be chosen.
Some of the discussions which I thought happened on the public fontconfig list
actually happened in private. I'm not sure why the fontconfig maintainer CC:ed
folks instead of making the discussion happen on the list.
In any case, that ship has sailed. If you want to ship something else in
Ubuntu, or Debian, it's easy enough to do. If you want to have a discussion
about the default choice, again, here is not the place.
