Since the original VISCII data came (I think) from the Unicode web
site, maybe this discrepancy should be more reported even more officially?

I doubt whether the Unicode consortium had provided
any viscii-Unicode mapping table
under www.unicode.org/Public/MAPPINGS/.

I could suppose the table shipped on Perl was borrowed
from czyborra.com. The table there
  ( http://czyborra.com/charsets/vietnamese.html )
has wrongly the duplicated A^? and no a^?.

The following site provides a correct table.

Probably impossible, since the Perl 5.7.2 distribution
did not contain viscii.enc nor viscii.ucm.

Moreover ICU does not have any VISCII mapping
neither in the version 2.4 nor in CVS
( http://oss.software.ibm.com/cvs/icu/charset/data/ ).

Okay.  I'll replace viscii.ucm in the next release.

I think this is it.  When I took over Encode maintenance, I have 
rebuilt whatever mappping unicode.org did have but I don't recall doing 
so for viscii so it must have come from viscii.enc.

Hello. I've found the mapping in the present viscii.ucm
have a bit diffrence from that in RFC 1456.

U+1EA8 (A^? in VIQR) should be mapped for 0x86,
and U+1EA9 (a^? in VIQR) for 0xA6.

Here is a test scratch to check whether VISCII indeed
supports all the Latin extensions for Vietnamese,
i.e. U+1EA0..U+1EF9.

#!perl
for (my $u = 0x1EA0; $u = 0x1EF9; $u++) {
my $e = encode(VISCII, chr $u, Encode::FB_WARN);
}
warn End.;

Thanks. Applied in my repository.

P.S.  Is ftp.funet.fi still down?  I think I am ready to 
$Encode:VERSION++ with this patch applied.

Unfortunately so.  Or, FUNET is up, it's just that the updates
from PAUSE to FUNET are stopped until they are certain everything
is fixed.  (See use.perl.org.)
