The cause (at least part of the cause) was determined to be the Greek GP's finding that Greek Small Letter Nu and Greek Small Letter Gamma are variants. That finding also resulted in an in-script Cyrillic variant which the Cyrillic GP found unacceptable. </div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false"><br></div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false">The result of discussion between the GPs was that the Greek GP would reconsider their finding regarding Nu and Gamma. Thus no action is required of the Latin GP. </div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false"><br></div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false">2) <b>Variants due to Transitivity</b></div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false"><br></div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false">A complete listing will, of course, await finalizing our decisions on Latin in-script variants. But I have started creating tables for them. For example, for Cyrillic cross-script variants, each case we found will also require a new transitivity listing for each of the Latin in-script variants we find for the Latin element in the cross-script variant. Tedious to generate, or course, but not calling for any particular decision process by us.</div><div><br></div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false">Please let me know if you read the IP's comments differently.</div><div><br></div><div class="ydp1e641927signature">Bill Jouris<br>Inside Products<br>bill.jouris@insidethestack.com<br>831-659-8360<br>925-855-9512 (direct)</div></div></div></body></html>
