[MPEG-OTSPEC] Agendas and minutes of the Font AHG

Thu Oct 1 01:55:20 CEST 2020

If you aware the ISO Code of Conduct, please respect the chair of this 
AHG and behave in a professional manner.

Please do whatever you would like to do but limit posting any 
information not relevant to this AHG.  If you have any concerns about SC 
29's operation then please raise it to the relevant people and 
committee. Opening what has happened in SC29 and discussing it here is 
absolutely not acceptable.

Sincerely,
Young
