RE: Gen-ART LC review of draft-faltstrom-5892bis-04

Hi Paul,

The IANA registry is in
http://www.iana.org/assignments/idnabis-tables/idnabis-tables.xml#idnabis-ta
bles-properties
I saw that in the beginning it has as reference RFC 5892 for the whole
table. Will it stay this way after the change proposed in this draft and
just the three individual values will change based on 1.1, 1.2 and 1.3? or
are there no changes in the IANA registry at all. This is unclear to me
according to the section 3 of your draft.

Section 5.1 of RFC5892 says "If non-backward-compatible changes or other
problems arise during the
   creation or designated expert review of the table of derived property
   values, they should be flagged for the IESG." . My question was if the
change is backward compatible. The 5892bis draft does not say it.

Thanks
Roni

Major issues:

1.       I am not sure how the IANA consideration section is in-line
with the IANA consideration section of RFC5892. Maybe some
clarification text would be helpful.

We think that the IANA considerations here are, in fact, what RFC 5892
was designed for. That is, RFC 5892 says that the registry will be
updated ("IANA has created a registry with the derived properties for
the versions of Unicode released after (and including) version 5.2"),
and this is such an update. Please let me know if that doesn't match
your understanding.

2.       The IANA registry for derived property value has RFC 5892,
does this draft want to change the reference, how will it be done.

Section 2 of the draft is pretty clear here: "No change to RFC 5892 is
needed based on the changes made in Unicode 6.0".

  I think that it relates also to the issue of whether this draft
updates RFC 5892.

And here too.
