Register EBCDIC Character Set "OSD_EBCDIC_DF03_IRV"

This document provides information about character encoding OSD_EBCDIC_DF03_IRV
(Fujitsu-Siemens standard mainframe EBCDIC encoding, which is widely spread in
Europe, IRV stands for International Reference Version), which is a de-facto
standard in Europe for information interchange on BS2000 mainframe systems of
Fujitsu-Siemens Computer.

The proposed character set "OSD_EBCDIC_DF03_IRV" is currently used by a large
user community using BS2000 mainframe systems.

Originally, the specification of the proposed standard "OSD_EBCDIC_DF03_IRV"
was created for BS2000 systems and is documented in the Fujitsu-Siemens Manual
of the product XHCS
http://manuals.fujitsu-siemens.com/servers/bs2_man/man_us/dcam/v14_0/xhcs.pdf
(page 136f).

OSD_EBCDIC_DF03_IRV is a single-byte character set (SBCS) containing all
contemporary characters that are in ISO 646-IRV (US ASCII), plus some control
characters from ISO-6429.


The reference table between OSD_EBCDIC_DF03_IRV and Unicode is shown below.
