Dear All
In February, before the ICANN 61 Panama meeting, CGP submit to IP the proposal document 1.1 as "CGP-LGR-Proposal-1.1-20180204.docx".
IP kindly replied a detailed feedback document as "CGP-LGR-Proposal-1.1-20180204-IPReview-20180214.docx". CGP and IP had a thorough discussion over the comments in the feedback document at ICANN 61 Panama meeting.
However, CGP encountered a new issue in Panama, which is called as "visual similarity" or "visually identical variant". As everyone knows, tradtionally, Chinese community have only semantically identical variant, the visally similar characters are not treated as exchangeable variant. In the CGP & CDNC joint meeting April, the attendees disputed over the concept of visual variants.
Overall, CGP updated the proposal document to 1.2 as "CGP-LGR-Proposal-1.2-20180824 based on 1.1-20180204-IPReview.docx".
The updates are as below:
1) Moves out the characters imported from TGSCC, JGP and KGP in the last version, and correspondingly changes the related variant mappings.
2) Revises the documents according to the feedback comments from IP.
3) States and analyzes the issue of visual similarity in Chapter 7.
Please help review the attached documnets and do not hesitate to give your valuable suggestions and comments.
Before the ICANN 63 Barcelona meeting, CGP and CDNC will hold another joint meeting in Beijing early October. Hope everyone could find the time to attend the meeting in person or remotely.
Best Regards,
Wei WANG
