Dr. Lu and Mr. Bear,

I noticed that the 2nd example in sec. 2.1.3 has been changed according to the input by IRGN 1520.

---
2.1.3. Non-cognate rule
No matter how similar two ideographs is in actual shape, non-cognate or semantically different glyphs shall be considered to have different abstract shapes. The following gives examples of characters with very similar glyphs, yet the characters are semantically different, thus considered having different abstract shapes because they are non-cognate.

'Ðç'(U+620C) and 'Êù'(U+620D) differ only in rotated strokes/dots (S.1.5 a).
'Ô»'(U+66F0) and 'ƒÐ'(U+5183) differ only in contact of strokes (S.1.5 c).
'ÓÚ'(U+4E8E) and '¸É'(U+5E72) differ only in folding back at the stroke termination (S.1.5 f).
---
While I understand 'Ô»'(U+66F0) and 'ƒÐ'(U+5183) could be one of examples when they are used as a component, they are obviously different enough (at least, from view point of S.1.5 c) as a stand-alone ideograph.
I would suggest you consider get it back to the original, or you might want to change the description how it would be an example against S.1.5.

My two yens,
/anan

Dear Everyone,

Attached is PnP Version 2 Draft 1 which I revised based on our
discussion in IRG Meeting No. 31 incorporating additional feedbacks from
Taichi after the meeting and my own input.  Only long text revisions are
made explicit. Please give me feedbacks by directed editing the file
with trace function on(please accept all my changes first even if you do
not agree with it) or by putting comments in the document(in that case,
please put your name on the side of the comments).  You can also give me
general comments in separate email or documents.

Please give me feedbacks by Jan. 23, 2009 to ensure inclusion.  Every
member please update your source reference list in Appendix D which I
basically copied from ISO 10646:2003.

I also attached Taichi's feedback for your reference.

Looking forward to your comments.

LU Qin
