This is the second call for WG2 meeting # 40 from 2 – 5 April 2001 in Mountain View, California.  The host organization is the Unicode Consortium at the Microsoft campus.  The logistics information is at Unicode web site: http://www.unicode.org/unicode/timesens/meetings_logistics.html and the SC2/WG2 website.  Ms. Magda Danish at the Unicode Consortium is the contact point for logistics.  It is extremely important to register for the meeting as well because it will help Ms Danish to prepare entrance badges to the Microsoft before your arrival.  The registration form is part of the logistics information.  Please note that plans are being finalized to have an outing in the Bay Area on Friday, 6 April 2001, so when you make your travel arrangements remember to extend your stay in the Bay Area an extra day.    

 

WG2 will be meeting starting at 10:00 am Monday, 2 April 2001 and conclude on Thursday, 5 April 2001, hopefully before noon.

 

This second call for WG2 meeting # 40 includes an updated preliminary agenda, which includes the documents that have been posted on the web site since the 1st call went out in December.  The agenda outline is similar to the one we used in our earlier meeting in Athens.  It will be posted to the SC2/WG2 website at URL: www.dkuug.dk/JTC1/SC2/WG2.  The deadline for receiving documents related to this meeting is 15 March 2001.  I do not plan to send out a hard copy document except for experts who do not have access to the web and need a hard copy.  If you cannot send me an electronic copy of your contribution, please send me the paper copy and I will scan it and create a pdf file for posting.  It is preferable to have all contributions as pdf files but I can accept Word documents as well.  I do not guarantee posting any documents that arrive after 31 March 2001.

 

The objective of this meeting is to continue the WG2 program of work, with special focus on the disposition of comments on ballots for PDAM1, 10646-1:2000 and to continue processing FDIS 10646-2:2000.
