Re: [jlreq] JLReq TF meeting notes 2023-8-8 (#373)

Hello Fuqiao,

That is super. There would be a few options of doing the investigation depending on the amount of time they wan to use. 

a. The team at CITPC identify discrepancies, and font developers in China verify if they are also true for fonts they make.
b. Setup a semi-joint investigation. Each conducts the investigation and the result will be shared through a periodic joint meeting. Producing single proposal.

and anything between a and b.

So far issues are found with CFF flavored OpenType fonts.

Two examples so far are kern and VORG. Kida started a team in CITPC <https://moji.or.jp/> to review all tables in C/J fonts to find out if there are any similar issues. The goal is to propose modifications to the Open Font Format team in ISO/IEC.
