Re: [idn] opting out of SC/TC equivalence
Hi James,
I think you can display these chinese characters in your
system, so you can make
the explaination , and tell me the answer how to treat them ?
TC(統) , SC(统)
TC(頻), SC(频)
They are the same chinese characters in pairs but they are coded with
different UNICODE .
Does they are like the problems of " fi " ?
And tell me why a A should be mapped to ASCII "a" or "A" ?
I don't expect this WG to solve all the equivalence of TC/SC. I just want
to know what is the guideline to reduce the confusing troubles in nameprep ?
Why so amall set of PRC simplified quick-written scripts are not case
folding problem ?
