SC 22 N 3666 SUMMARY OF VOTING ON SC 22 N 3586 SUMMARY OF VOTING ON Letter Ballot: SC22 N3586 Circulated by: JTC 1/SC22 Circulation Date: 2002-06-12 Closing Date: 2003-10-12 SUBJECT: FCD Ballot for the revision of ISO/IEC 15897:1999 - Procedure for the Registration of Cultural Elements ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The following responses have been received on the subject of approval: "P" Members supporting approval without comment 6 (China, Czech Republic, Denmark, Germany, Italy, Republic of Korea) "P" Members supporting approval with comments 1 (Norway) "P" Members not supporting approval 3 (Japan, Netherlands, USA) "P" Members abstaining 3 (Austria, Switzerland, UK) "P" Members not voting 12 (Belgium, Brazil, Canada, Egypt, Finland, France, Ireland, DPR of Korea, Romania, Russian Federation, Slovenia, Ukraine) __end of ballot, beginning of NB comments____ Japan Japan sees no necessity of this standard. In addition to that, Japan takes it inappropriate to register cultural elements in terms of the methods described in ISO/IEC TR 14652, which has many technically controversial items. Norway We propose that a script identifier from ISO 15924 be added in the identifiers for Narrative Cultural Specifications, POSIX locales and other relevant places. This is meant to address cultures that use multiple scripts, eg Cyrillic and Latin scripts in Serbia. Netherlands We consider our objections to the previous draft (N 3523) not sufficiently accomodated.
