It seems that my first response to this discussion was not
delivered because my attachment image was too big. I'm sorry,
please let me post revised version...
-- China National Body had ever reported that they had a plan to encode the character for the tablature, in IRG: http://appsrv.cse.cuhk.edu.hk/~irg/irg/irg32/IRGN1574_ChinaActivityReportIRG32.doc When I asked the progress of the plan in later IRG meeting, they commented "nothing to report in the project". I wish if there is something ongoing in Chinese Character Repertoire project (oh, it was announced to be finished in 2015!). BTW, a character for the latter style was sampled in a normal Chinese dictionary "CiYuan", and China NB submission to CJK Unified Ideograph Extension F includes it (G_CY2255). However, there was a comment that the evidence image was not clearly scanned, so G_CY2255 is being queued in the postponed list (see PDF in http://appsrv.cse.cuhk.edu.hk/~irg/irg/irg41/IRGN1979Appendix1_PostponedIRG40And41.zip ) Regards, mpsuzuki Werner LEMBERG wrote: >> China National Body had ever reported that they had a plan to >> encode the character for the tablature, in IRG: [...] > > Thanks. > >> BTW, a few (only one?) characters for the latter style are sampled >> in a normal dictionary "CiYuan", and will be included in CJK Unified >> Ideograph Extension F.
