Korean Justification

http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-i18n-cjk/2014JulSep/0002.html

koji: sent this out and haven't had time to digest responses
... issue is that WG removed inter-ideograph justification
... prefer automatic based on content language
... and when content language is not available
... want to do something "good for any language"
... trying to figure out how to keep that goal
... particularly between Chinese, Japanese, and Korean
... need Korean input to make proposal
... WG discussed status yesterday
... some thought maybe bring inter-ideograph back
... maybe translate English to Korean and send again
... and see what comes back

richard: let's not mess around with language codes, forcing them to say something that they don't say

koji: agree
... mozilla may have decided to go in this direction
... others don't seem to be paying attention

richard: one case talking about korean using han only
... and that was treated as "chinese"

addison: so if a language has one behavior, just fold it into "auto"
... but if two behaviors need keywords

richard: perhaps ping Leandro for some info

Encoding LC

http://www.w3.org/International/track/products/25

# Historically many encodings had their names and labels (and sometimes # references to specifications) defined in the IANA Character Sets registry. # This specification supplants that registry.

AOB?

JcK: helpful if there will be a summary ahead of the call
... IETF is the week after next
