Anymore? [P] and [v\] for the labiodental approximant were both introduced in the X-SAMPA document; I can't see how the need could have changed since. Needless to say, I don't think there was any need for [P] for this use in the first place. Various posters on this list, incl yours truly, have used [P] for the bilabial fric on this list. Infact, yours truly is in this very moment thinking to replace [p\] with [P] on his website to increase the weight of usage in favour of a change to the CXS. Andreas
