The IRG#13 makes the following resolutions:
Resolution IRG M13.1: Extension B printing formats
The IRG resolves to have two separate documents:
Resolution IRG M13.2: Extension B Working Document Format
For the IRG internal working document, format specified in N615R will be used.
Resolution IRG M13.3: ISO 10646 format for part 2 plane 2
Based on WG2’s request, IRG resolves to separate the source information from the glyph image table for WG2. Because over 95% of extension B comes from traditional sources, it is possible to consolidate the three columns into a single column format. Therefore, for standard publication, the glyph image table will use the one column format suggested by WG2, and the choice of glyph image for each character will be based on the following principles:
a. If a character is found in Kangxi Dictionary, the traditional style glyph image will be used.
b. If a character is from a single source and is not found in Kangxi Dictionary, the glyph image from that source will be used.
c. If a character is from multiple sources and is not found in Kangxi Dictionary, consensus will be sought to choose the one closest to the Kangxi style.
Resolution IRG M13.4: ISO 10646 part 2 plane 2 source information
Source information will be provided to WG2 in machine readable form.
Resolution IRG M13.5: working schedule for the publication of Extension A for ISO10646, second edition
IRG members accept the following schedule:
a. The Chief Editor will send Camera-ready copies to other IRG editors by 10th June 1999 through express mail.
b. IRG editors will provide feedback on printing errors to the Chief Editor before 24th June 1999.
c. The final camera-ready copy will be submitted to SC2 secretary before 30th June 1999.
Resolution IRG M13.6: Editorial report, N654
IRG accepts the editorial report N654.
In case the production of Extension B V6 falls behind schedule, the latest reviewed version of Extension B will be submitted to WG2.
Resolution IRG M13.7: Proposal for additional ideographs, N659R
IRG accepts the Proposal for additional ideographs in Extension B, N659R.
IRG recognizes the problem raised in N655. IRG members are requested to study this problem and submit their views in IRG#14.
Resolution IRG M13.9: response to WG2’s concerns on WG2 N1952
