The JTC1/SC22/WG15 Rapporteur Group on Internationalization expresses its gratitude to the meeting host, BSI. 2. The JCT1/SC22/WG15 Rapporteur Group on Internationalization expresses its gratitude to the following officers for their services during the meeting: Keld Simonsen (Chair), Greger Leijonhufvud and Shigekatsu Nakao (drafting), and Dominic Dunlop (secretary). 3. The next meeting of the JTC1/SC22/WG15 Rapporteur Group on Internationalization will be held on 90-04-22 - 23 in the Netherlands. [Note: Since the October 1990 meeting of WG15 rescheduled its Netherlands meeting to 91-05-13 - 17, it is suggested that RIN's next meeting should be moved to 91-05-13 - 14. A formal notice to this effect may be expected from the WG15 convener -- DD] 4. The JTC1/SC22/WG15 Rapporteur Group on Internationalization requests SC22/WG15 to request the U.S. member body to provide coordination copies of future drafts of ANSI/IEEE Std. 1003.2 to internationalization Rapporteurs for review and comment. 5. The JTC1/SC22/WG15 Rapporteur Group on Internationalization requests SC22/WG15 to request the U.S. member body to initiate a dialogue by considering, and by providing advance information on, internationalization issues pertaining to networking. 6. The JTC1/SC22/WG15 Rapporteur Group on Internationalization requests SC22/WG15 to request the U.S. member body to initiate a dialogue by considering, and by providing advance information on, internationalization issues pertaining to other areas of interest of which the U.S. member body is aware. 7. The JTC1/SC22/WG15 Rapporteur Group on Internationalization commends to SC22/WG15 the action of the Danish member body in recommending that future 90-11-15 Page 1 Resolutions SC22 work on internationalization be based on the work of WG15. 8. The JTC1/SC22/WG15 Rapporteur Group on Internationalization requests SC22/WG15 to advise the SC22 Special Working Group on Character Set Issues that the work of WG15 requires: 1. The definition of short names for graphic characters and control functions corresponding to the long names defined by DIS 10646 and other standards; 2. The ability to use lower-case alphabetic characters in these short names. 9. The JTC1/SC22/WG15 Rapporteur Group on Internationalization commends to SC22/WG15 the internationalization-related content of draft 10 of IEEE 1003.2 (the current U.S. working draft of CD 9945-2) as conceptually representing the minimal functionality sufficient to provide useful internationalization facilities to application programs in a POSIX environment. This is confirmed by the fact that they are believed to meet at least the national requirements of the Canadian and Danish member bodies. 90-11-15 Page 2
