Jungshik> Could anyone tell me what to put as the last two components of

There is some discussion about this now. Some of the possibilities that have
been discussed are:
iso10646-1
iso-10646
unicode-2.0
Jungshik> I've got an X font server which presents MS-Windows outline
Jungshik> fonts(in a proprieatary format similar but not identical to

Jungshik> GL encoding and JOHAB(Korean) encoding. I wanna use fonts

No one really knows what Netscape expects at the moment. That is why we are
discussing it.
