Thanks for the comments.

I reviewed draft-ietf-idnabis-tables-07. My comments are enclosed below.

  IANA is to keep a list of the derived property for the versions of

  Unicode that is released after (and including) version 5.1.  The

  derived property value is to be calculated according to the

specifications in sections Section 2 and Section 3 and not by copying

  the non-normative table found in Appendix B.



[BA] This seems to imply that IANA will do the calculation itself, rather

Than just registering the results of a calculation made by someone else.

Is that correct?

The wg do not really care how the data at IANA is created. I have a discussion with IANA on more proper wording.

  For example, a

  character can have its Unicode General_Category value change from So

  to Sm, or from Lo to Ll, without affecting the algorithm results.

Moreover, even if such changes were to result, the BackwardCompatible

  list (Section 2.7) can be adjusted to ensure the stability of the

  results.



[BA] Lo and L1 are not defined until the next section. Would it make sense
to define these terms earlier on?

Let me have a look.

Some code points need to be allowed in exceptional circumstances, but

should be excluded in all other cases; these rules are also described

  in other documents.  The most notable of these are the the Join



[BA] "the the" -> "the"

Thanks.

Section 5.1



     in sections Section 2 and Section 3



[BA] Should this be "Sections 2 and 3"?

Yes, most certainly.
