RE: windows-874 new registration

[Shawn Steele <Shawn.Steele@microsoft.com>]

I'm actually a tad lost, can someone point me to where I officially request this registration now that we've had the review?  (It's been a while since I submitted the last one).

Thanks,
Shawn

I believe that we still have consensus on this proposed charset and will be submitting it for review.  We've had another 2 weeks in addition to the first 3 years of review :)

Thanks,
Shawn.

We saw this before, but I got distracted, so I'm asking for more public review.

Thanks,
Shawn

Working on consensus :)  I added "for Thai" to address the concern about the code page's correlation to a language.

I left the usage as "common".  Since this is the CP_ACP for a Thai Windows machine it is quite common.  The is somewhat unrelated to the recommendation that UTF-8 be used instead.
 
Thanks,

Windows-874 is in use by several groups, but it hasn't been registered yet, so I'd like to submit it for review:  The form is similar to the 1252 request we discussed last year.
