Re: Registration of new charset [ISO-2022-JP-2004]

[Koichi Yasuoka <yasuoka@kanji.zinbun.kyoto-u.ac.jp>]

Dear Sirs,

One month has passed after the proposal shown below, and I've
heard no objection against the charset.  Then, regarding RFC 2978,
how do I contact the "charset reviewer"?

Best Regards,
Koichi Yasuoka

------ Registration proposal on 17 Jul 2006

Charset name:

ISO-2022-JP-2004

Charset aliases:

ISO-2022-JP-2003
ISO-2022-JP-3-2003

Suitability for use in MIME text:

Suitable for 7-bit use in MIME body-part as text/plain or text/html.
B-encoding is recommended for use in MIME header-part, because
ISO-2022-JP-2004 is a partial extension of ISO-2022-JP.

Published specification:

JIS X 0213 7-bit and 8-bit double byte coded extended KANJI sets for
information interchange, Japanese Standards Association (first edition
2000-01-20, amendment 2004-02-20, corrigendum 2004-04-01).

ISO 10646 equivalency table:

No direct URI to the equivalency table, but the table is included in
JIS X 0213, which can be found via
 http://www.jisc.go.jp/app/JPS/JPSO0020.html
with searching the word "X0213".

Additional information:

"ISO-2022-JP-2003" and "ISO-2022-JP-3-2003" were in the first print of
JIS X 0213:2004 dated February 20, 2004, and they were both corrected
to "ISO-2022-JP-2004" in the corrigendum dated April 1, 2004.  To avoid
complications "ISO-2022-JP-2003" and "ISO-2022-JP-3-2003" may be aliases
of "ISO-2022-JP-2004", but "ISO-2022-JP-2004" is preferred.
