We are continuing review of Extension H. We provided some feedback regarding VSource character code changes. - WS2021
We reviewed the working sets submitted by all members and provided feedback and
responses via the online tool. - Nom Na Tong font
The Vietnamese reference font, NomNaTong-regular.ttf, is now available in a git-hub
project at https://github.com/nomfoundation/font. We continue to add glyphs and fix
errors as we find them. Version 4.6 was provided to the IRG for code charts and the
current version is 4.8. Proposals for a small number of glyph changes will be submitted
to the IRG in the coming months. - Addition of Dr. Trận Trọng Dương to our advisory group.
Dr. Dương (陳仲洋), a scholar and member of the Institute of Hán-Nôm Studies in
Hanoi, has agreed to participate in our encoding effort in an advisory role. He does not
plan to attend IRG meetings at this time.
