Since pri108 has been raised on the mailing list. It is worth
mentioning regarding pri108 there are problems raised by decisions at
the Hangzhou WG2 in September and IRG #29. To allow for informed
discussion I also 'CC' a commnet of mine, also submitted via web
reporting form.:-
To Unicode and Adobe,
during the public review period it has become very clear that some of
the suggested sequences in pri108 are incorrect, and that to continue
with pri108 in it's present form would lead to immediate problems.
Most accute is the problem of CID+14089 which in FPAMD5 is proposed
to be encoded at U+9FC4 (see 02n3982.zip fpdam5-all.pdf page 5 ) but
in the adobe IVes is U+6881 vs018.
Even if this problem is resolved a further adobe 10 characters are in
http://www.cse.cuhk.edu.hk/~irg/irg/irg29/IRGN1380_UNC.pdf a list of
254 characters fast tracted by the IRG which a verdict by the IRG
within the next 12 months.
2 characters approved for submission to the IRG by the UTC at the
request of Adobe, namely:-
CID+13866 pri108 U+52E2 vs 18 is UTC00857 (IRGN1380 #022)
CID+20240 pri108 U+943A vs 18 is UTC00872 (IRGN1380 #207) (also has
J-source JH-JTBDE1)
And a further 8 or 9 characters submitted by Japan
CID+13780 pri108 U+4ECA vs18 JH-004890 (IRGN1380 #008)
CID+20114 pri108 U+5EA7 vs18 JH-IB1783 (IRGN1380 #070)
CID+20117 pri108 U+5FA1 vs18 JH-IB0680 (IRGN1380 #074)
CID+14064 pri108 U+687A vs18 JH-JTB314 (IRGN1380 #095)
CID+13723/4 pri108 U+2363A vs18/9 JH-IB2148 (IRGN1380 #099)*
CID+15393 pri108 U+2363A vs18 JH-JTC0EB (IRGN1380 #100)*
CID+20150 pri108 U+6A9C vs18 JH-JTB398 (IRGN1380 #102)
CID+20201 pri108 U+83DF vs18 JH-JTB989 (IRGN1380 #171)
CID+13651 pri108 U+885E vs18 JH-JTBAFD (IRGN1380 #181)
*a separate encodeing for one of the above could make two pri108 IVes wrong.
If the above IVes are not change then many of the above characters
will be displayed incorrectly whenever the default ignore is used.
To leave pri108 as it is should not be an option.
The above list resticts itself to those IVSes raised at IRG #29 hosted
by Adobe earlier this month.
There are other IVes that are suspect, these have been communicated
separately to Adobe.
Yours sincerely
