Your proposal misses the points = that:

- this is about a unit with 1e-6 Bitcoins = or 100 satoshis. 
- it is not about people who know = Bitcoin and are techies, but about those who don=92t and = aren=92t.

The reasons for such a unit are more = than shifting the comma some places for convinience, 
but = to align Bitcoin with capabilities of existing financial software and = customs of finance and average people,
and ISO standard of = currency abbreviations.

bit and XBT seems to = check the boxes. 

I would love to have = some feedback on xbit as per my previous mail.
