All,

Based on discussions that took place during last week's OpenType Layout meeting that was hosted at Google, I recommend that the "UI recommendation" text for the 'halt' and 'vhal' features be changed to the following:

"This feature should be off by default. However, implementations conforming to JLREQ (Requirements for Japanese Text Layout) or similar CJK text layout standard that expect half-width forms of characters whose default glyphs are full-width should turn on this feature by default, or selectively apply this feature to particular characters that require special treatment for CJK text layout purposes, such as brackets, punctuation, and quotes."

If links are allowed, then "JLREQ" should resolve to the following:
