送信者: yamanouchi 宛先: Cc: 件名 : from Glocom, Tokyo 日時 : 2000年5月24日 22:59 ISO/IEC JTC1/SC34 Secretariat Dear Ms. Peacock, Responding to your e-mail to Yushi Komachi, I will inform you of Glocom's position on the responsibility for the ISO/IEC 10036. The importance of font-related identifiers, particularly glyph identifiers, is increasing independently from the increase in character code spaces. Basically, ideographs like kanji are much more flexible than standardized entities such as coded characters. It is our conviction that anybody who will wish to have unique identifiers for his own ideographs or other objects should be registrable. Those objects may also be requried to be interchanged in an open electronic document environment. Those requirements, we believe, can be satisfied by the mechanism of international registration. The ISO/IEC 10036 works well to carry out the registration of font-related identifiers. If accepted, Glocom wishes to take responsibility of registration authority for ISO/IEC 10036.
