This is the final call for WG2 meeting # 44 from 20 – 23 October 2003 in Mountain View, California.  The host organization is the Unicode Consortium, on behalf of the U.S. national body, at the Microsoft campus in the San Francisco Bay Area.  The Unicode web site has all the logistics information, including a registration form, at http://www.unicode.org/timesens/logistics-WG2.html on hotels and driving directions.  Ms. Magda Danish at the Unicode Consortium is the contact point for logistics.  Those of you who need a visa to enter the U.S .and did not contact Ms. Danish yet, not need to start working on this immediately.

 

WG2 will be meeting starting at 10:00 am Monday, 20 October 2003 and conclude on Thursday, 23 October 2003, hopefully before noon.

 

This final call for WG2 meeting # 44 includes a preliminary agenda, with documents and contributions which I received so far.  All the contributions that I received are already posted on the SC2/WG2 web site at URL:  www.dkuug.dk/JTC1/SC2/WG2.  The deadline for receiving documents related to this meeting is 30 September 2003.

 

 I do not plan to send out a hard copy document except for experts who do not have access to the web and need a hard copyIf you must have a hard copy at the meeting, please let me know in advance so that copies can be prepared in advance.

 

If you cannot send me an electronic copy of your contribution, please send me the paper copy and I will scan it and create a pdf file for posting.  It is preferable to have all contributions as pdf files but I can accept Word documents as well.  I do not guarantee posting any documents that arrive after 30 September 2003.

 

The objective of this meeting is to continue the WG2 program of work, with special focus on proposals for additional repertoire additions that have been recently submitted.
