Re: Proposal for additional Aliases to IANA registry of character sets

Havard:

I realized that one of the tasks of adding aliases to the registry is that
someone has to actually type in the aliases one by one to the current
char-sets registry.

I have prepared the replacement text (copied below) in the form of two sets
of contiguous parts of the register.  I have inserted the appropriate
proposed aliases for all the IBMxxxxx ids, for which the aliases IBM-yyyy
were proposed.  These appear as an extra line Alias: IBM-xxxx for each
entry in the register.

I did not include the two controversial IBM-xxxxx aliases one for the ASCII
and the other for 8859-1, from the original proposal (ref:
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/ietf-charsets/2002JulSep/0058.html on
30 July 2002.)

I hope this will help towards your early approval and additions of these
aliases to the register.  If there is anything that should have been added
but has not been, please let me know.

Best regards,  Uma.
