Just to correct the inaccuracies about Issue 8 drafts in the above: 1. The most recently released draft is numbered 2.1 and is the fourth draft (1, 1.1, 2, 2.1). 2. The next draft will be draft 3 and is intended to be "feature complete". Therefore, if nobody proposes wording changes to add a POSIX.utf-8 locale in time for it to be included in draft 3, it is highly unlikely there will be a POSIX.utf-8 locale in Issue 8. -- Geoff Clare <g.cl...@opengroup.org> The Open Group, Apex Plaza, Forbury Road, Reading, RG1 1AX, England
