[mpeg-OTspec] Language System tags needed for preferred glyphs

[Levantovsky, Vladimir]

Hi Denis,

My comment about open ballot period and comments was related to another standard document – ISO/IEC 14496-28 “Composite Font Representation”, for which the corrigendum is currently being worked on.

Your suggestion to introduce additional Language system tags seem to be related to the 3rd edition of the OFF standard (ISO/IEC 14496-22) which is currently in the working draft stage. As it is the WD, we can introduce changes by consensus, and I think it would be helpful if you could provide more info on what you are proposing, with references to specific parts of that document that you want to see modified [and why]. Any external references to the sources of the information you are using would also be appreciated.

Thank you,
Vladimir

Folks, just FYI - the latest corrigendum is currently under ballot so if there are any additional changes needed we can introduce them via ballot comments but we need to finalize the comments and do it quickly.
The following Australian indigenous languages would require Language systems tags as they may required preferred glyphs for U+014A:
Dayi, dax
Dhangu, dhg
Dhuwal, duj
Djambarrpuyngu, djr, [DJR is already Zarma]
Gumatj, gnn
Gupapuyngu, guf
Ritarungo, rit
Bandjalang, bdy
Yugambeh, yub
Githabul, gih
Minjangbal, xjb
Arakwal, rwk

As well as the following for preferred glyphs for U+0181:
Loma (Liberia), lom
Toma, tod, [TOD is already Todo]
Dan, dnj
Kpelle, kpe
Kpelle (Liberia), xpe
Kpelle (Guinea), gkp


Cheers
