[ChineseGP] Memo of CGP Fortnightly Meeting 7th August

[Dillon, Chris]

Dear Wang Wei,



Unfortunately I can't make tomorrow's meeting.



I have read through the various documents that have been circulated and here are a few thoughts:

·         I share Professor Zhang's concern about the CGP's repertoire being too large, although I realize that reducing it may be a huge task. I am interested in his suggestions for "slimming" it.

·         I also share his concern about large sets of variants, but would a modified definition of variant require a lot of work to implement?

·         Qi Chao mentions that the JGP is interested in examples and I think they will be interested in e.g. 发, as they may be surprised that it probably won't be possible to have two Japanese TLDs whose only difference is 発 and 髪. No Japanese person without a knowledge of Mandarin would think that those two have anything to do with each other. At least it is difficult to think of a situation where it could be a problem. There are also situations where one character in Japanese e.g. 弁 is at least three in Chinese: 辩, 辨 and possibly 瓣.



I wish you a fruitful meeting.



Regards,



Chris.

Dear Hanchuan and Colleagues



                Thank you for attending the meeting.

                Here are some tasks we need to do before the next fortnightly meeting:



                1)  Improve the proposal, specify the language, repertoire and etc. (I will send out a updated document next week)

                2)  Provide some coordination examples on variants mapping to Japan and Korea community, to help all have a better understanding of coordination principles.

                3)            Select Kenny and other representatives to KGP meeting next Tuesday



                Please feel free to let me know if there is anything I forget to mention.



Regards

Wang Wei
