DR 11-0033, "WML: Positioning of Emphasis Marks" still not quite resolved to China's satisfaction

[MURATA Makoto]

Dear Ning,

Thank you for your interest in WG4 and this particular DR.

I declared a consensus in the Copenhagen meeting.  But China
will have a chance to comment on the upcoming DCOR during the
DCOR ballot.  China might want to try to provide compelling reasons
for invalidating many existing documents for the proposed name
change.

Regards,
Makoto
