There is no Copyleft symbol in gnome character map

There is no copyleft symbol in gnome character map. Copyleft is the basic principle of all GNU/Linux distros. Try to make copyleft symbol for gnome character map.

Sounds like a good, simple issue to resolve, but this does not meet the definition of a paper cut as most users are not affected by this.

(Please, let's not get into a discussion about how "copyleft is a core value of the community" or "in a perfect world, the absence of a copyleft symbol would deeply affect all users.")

[Noel J. Bergman (noeljb)]

There is no Unicode symbol for copyleft. Discussions in the Unicode community are 10 years old on the topic, and noted in the rejections that there is no such thing as copyleft; it is, in fact, a use of copyright. Attempts at homonym humor aside, copyright refers to entitlement, not direction.
