Reminder: tomorrow is the end of Last Call for these CR documents. Please
try to get any comments in by then.
So far we have one Issue:
CR ISSUE 1. Unicode normalization.
http://www.unicode.org/unicode/reports/tr15/ and other documents define
several mechanisms for mapping characters, for example replacing a
character+accent pair with a single accented character. Should the CR
documents say anything about this? Some possibilities include:
A. Pick one or more normalization scheme, and state that if a printer
advertises support for some characters it also implicitly supports the
normalized equivalent character(s).
B. State that there is no implicit normalization. A printer must
separately advertise support for each version that it supports. Clients
may not assume the normalized version is suported unless it is advertised.
C. No statement.
Chair's recommendation: B.

PWG folks,
I have posted these updated documents:
-Working Draft: The Printer Working Group RepertoireSupported Element
(ftp://ftp.pwg.org/pub/pwg/cr/wd/wd-crrs10-20030915.html)
-Best Practices for use of the RepertoireSupported Element
(ftp://ftp.pwg.org/pub/pwg/cr/wd/wd-crbp10-20030915.html)
These incorporate changes based on the Portland face-to-face.
In the Best Practices I have changed the term "basic repertoire" to
"well-known repertoire". This has been the subject of long debate, and
that's the best I can come up with. If you think another term is better
let us know.
My intention is to wrap these up. Therefore, the plan is:
1. Last Call for these documents begins today, and ends Wednesday, October
1
2. At the NYC meeting (and on the reflector) we will discuss any issues
raised during Last Call
3. Afterwards I will call for a formal vote to make the first document a
Candidate Standard; how to bless the Best Practices is TBD.
Please send your comments on these documents to me or the CR reflector.
I plan that this will be the last face-to-face for this project.
Thanks,
Elliott
