Dear colleagues,

Please find attached a work schedule for comment. The final version will form part of our panel formation proposal.

The schedule was calculated based on a presumption that we continue with the same level of resources we have now, also that things take roughly the same time as they did for the AGP.

· Learning from the AGP means we may move more quickly.

· However, we have more code points to cover, a smaller team and related scripts.

· Another factor that makes a big difference (4 months or so) is variants. Considerations in the use of the Latin script advised against our recognizing them, but cross-script variants (e.g. A, K, T, etc. with Russian) may need to be recognized and there are some possible candidates (LATIN SMALL LETTER A and LATIN SMALL LETTER ALPHA come to mind) for in-script variants.

In summary, the current schedule is probably too relaxed, especially if we can get more help or we don’t need to recognize variants.

Regards,

Chris.
