[MPEG-OTSPEC] Draft AHG report for review

[MURATA]

> As stated in the AHG Activities part of the report, the input contribution
> m62937 is the summary of proposed changes that are outlined in the existing
> GitHub project (https://github.com/harfbuzz/boring-expansion-spec), which
> has been presented for discussion in this AHG on March 6, 2023 (see email
> from Dave Crossland). In the discussion that followed, certain specific
> features and ways they could be integrated into the spec were discussed,
> but no conclusion had been reached on how to proceed. Based on the
> discussions conducted to date, it was my assessment that further
> discussions are necessary and that the impact of the proposed changes need
> to be carefully evaluated before any decision can be made.

It appears that most emails in that thread did not reach me
for some reason.  I now see them in the email archive.


> However, as it is common practice of the WG3 (in fact, any WG of SC29) -
> the input contributions cannot be made public to facilitate further
> discussions. Therefore, it was my recommendation that **based on the
> results of the discussion conducted during the WG3 meeting**, the content
> of the input contribution m62937 _*could be published*_ as a separate
> Technology under Consideration document, which, unlike an input
> contribution, can be made public and be used as the basis for further AHG
> discussions. Note that the way this recommendation is worded is merely a
> suggestion, and that the final decision on how to proceed will be made by
> the WG.

1a. (Break the 65k glyph limit on glyphs in a single font file)
in the boring-expansion-spec proposal looks very important to
CJK.
