I want to know the answer to the following question:
What was Unicode published as?
All the background I'm provided with is that "Developed in conjunction with the Universal Coded Character Set (UCS) standard and published as The Unicode Standard, the latest version of Unicode contains a repertoire of more than 120,000 characters covering 129 modern and historic scripts, as well as multiple symbol sets.". Is that enough to answer the question?
Answer: yes
