I cannot sympathize with Sprint's delay. It has all along been documented what the valid characters were. Just get all the managers that want to have a say in what the new scheme will be, and lock them into a hotel room with food service, allowing them to leave only once they have have a concensus or relinquish their say in the matter. They can just substitute / for - in the mean time. And then, Sprint isn't the only culprit.
