Re: callplot tool for generating call flows
Thank you, Jonathan! I think this is a good example of community problem solving - solve it once, share, and it's solved for all of us!

Unicode Consortium Review: 31 Cantonese Romanization 2004.06.08
Begin forwarded message: The Unicode Technical Committee has posted a new issue for public review and comment. Details are on the following web page: http://www.unicode.org/review/ Review periods for the new item closes on June 8, 2004. Please see the page for links to discussion and relevant documents. Briefly, the new issue is: --- 31 Cantonese Romanization 2004.06.08 The sources for the Unihan database use multiple competing romanizations of Cantonese, while the Unihan database uses yet another romanization. We feel that there is no good reason for Unicode to contribute to this confusion, so we plan to adopt a single, standard Cantonese romanization for use throughout the Unihan database. --- Also, the closing dates for issues #20 and #25 have been extended into June. --- If you have comments for official UTC consideration, please post them by submitting your comments through our feedback reporting page: http://www.unicode.org/reporting.html If you wish to discuss issues on the Unicode mail list, then please use the following link to subscribe (if necessary).

Unicode Consortium Review: 29 Normalization Issue (Closes 2004.06.08)

Details are on the following web page: http://www.unicode.org/review/ The review period for the new item closes on June 8, 2004. Please see the page for links to discussion and relevant documents. Briefly, the new issue is: 29 Normalization Issue (Closes 2004.06.08) There is a problem in the language of the specification of Unicode Standard Annex #15: Unicode Normalization Forms for forms NFC and NFKC. A textual fix is required to make normalization formally self-consistent. The fix will not have an impact on real data found in practice (with the possible exception of test cases for the algorithm itself), because the affected sequences do not constitute well-formed text in any language. Details, cases, and recommendations can be found in the review document.
