Part 3 of a new multi-part standard: Character repertoire checking

[Chris Rae]

This looks like a good approach to me - having most of the data in a new part and just referring to it from LCD  tags will make parsing nice and fast for applications that can't deal with the new content, and should make the files more clearly understood for humans too.

Did Japan have any further thoughts on the Kihon-Hanmen side of the NWIP? I think we left it in Beijing as "more thought required" given its part-existence in 29500 but I don't have my notes here so I might be wrong.

Dear colleagues,

As part of the NWIP proposal, Japan sketched Part 3 for character
repertoire checking.

> Part 3: Character repertoire checking
> This part is intended to provide mechanisms for permissible character repertoires.  It is expected that a new

> OPC part are introduced to WML, PML, and SML. The addition of this attribute is controlled by MCE of OOXML

> of which belong to the DSDL technology

We might want to begin with Structured Document Tags of WML.  I think
that we only need a very small extension.

1) A new OPC part: CREPDL script

This is an XML document conforming to 19757-7.  I do not want to create
a new media type dedicated to this but rather use application/xml.
It has the source relationship as follows:
http://purl.oclc.org/ooxml/officeDocument/relationships/characterContentConstraints

2) Extension to WML

We only have to introduce a new child element of <w:sdtPr>.  This
element references to one of the OPC parts sketched above.

<sdtPr>
   ....
  <foo:repertoire r:id="..."/>
  ...
</sdtPr>

Cheers,
Makoto
