Respectively from Latin Extended-B and Latin Extended-A. As I said, there is no official policy on it, to the letter of the policy any non-ASCII is currently forbidden. I think defenitely Extended-A should be allowed, but don't know about Extended-B, which contains mostly africa-specific characters, but also for example the Macedonian/Serbian g with an acute accent. We shall not know the details until policy has been decided, but I think all of it should be allowed. Note that there are bugs on policy from 2001 onwards for this issue, #99933 for example. I have good faith something like this will be accepted into policy post-sarge. --Jeroen -- Jeroen van Wolffelaar [EMAIL PROTECTED] (also for Jabber & MSN; ICQ: 33944357) http://Jeroen.A-Eskwadraat.nl -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
