Re: Registration of new charset GB18030 (fwd)



We had a question come up that I'm hoping to get some feedback on. In the registry, there are two cases where the same code page is given with different years. See below. Anytime two names are aliases, they have to point to precisely the same mapping. Now, I can believe that ANSI_X3.4-1968 is identical with ANSI_X3.4-1986, but it seems surprising that KS_C_5601-1987 is identical with KS_C_5601-1989. Can anyone confirm that these are in fact identical?
