RE: Multiple private agreements

I fully agree with Doug. Citing the CLDR project as something similar is
totally wrong. CLDR affects a very large number of users, which justifies
the investment into the project, whereas PUA is of very little general
interest.

Sincerely, Erkki

They won't do it. You can be sure of that.

I did not meant as a part of the standard itself, but as a separate
subproject (just like there is the CLDR project maintained
independantly from the Unicode standard, with its own schedule and own
policies) useful for managing encoding proposals during the encoding
process. Like other registries, it vould be coordinated only between
participants of this process, discussing together about which part of
the registry will be modified or withdrawn, and when this will occur.
Such registry (with its own versioning system) does not even have to
give any stability policy (not even a limited upward compatibility of
versions).
