Hi,
I concede to compatibility and other reasons.

I checked some unciode fonts and most fonts had this glyph: 0x2299.
I concede. Lets use:

0x1233A     0x2299

That leaves us with

1. Problem of different unification

Quick reference with gifs:

Table 6 row 6 column 9
Bruno>  0x12678 0x30D7
Gaspar> 0x2678  0x31F7 0x309A  # 1-6-88 (88 == 0x58)

If we use 0x30D7 we will clash with:

Table 5 row 4 column 8
0x8376  0x2557  0x30D7  # 1-5-55 (55 == 0x37)

But I do not really like my own x31F7 0x309A either.
What shall we do?

2. Problem of undefined symbol.

I concede to Bruno's 0x12B66 0xA4A3.
But what shall we do with 0x12B65 0xFFFD?
Maybe another symbol added to Unicode Yi radicals?

Table 11 row 5 column 6,7
0x2B65  ??????  # 1-11-69 (69 == 0x45)
0x2B66  0xA4A3  # 1-11-70 (70 == 0x46)

-----------------------------------------------------------

It is only two points! I will udpate my maps after we
find a solution to these two problems.

Then we sould make a matrix between our map and different
other maps on the web - but I would not change anything more
in our map till official map is published.

As a reminder: having this map will not solve problems mentioned
by Kubota san. It just defines a map for JIS X 0213 and it will
possibly suffer from the same problems as existing, now obselete
JIS X 0208 and JIS X 0212 maps do. Please read his document -
I fully agree with him.

But having a map makes it possible to continue the work.

BTW: I would like to have a mapping table with two files -
usually x11 fonts come in two different files for the two
planes - I can use one file for each plane.

Thank you,
gaspar
