Re: XML Encryption interop report

Hi! Joseph,
Thank you for you updating the interop matrix pages

The bellow is my reply to your comments.

Currently we are working on preparing a page and trial version for our
software.  I will tell you the URL when it is finished.

Yes.
Because the Japanese coded character sets, JIS X 0201 and JIS X 0208,
which are very popular in Japan, do not have interoperability with
the Unicode NFC form.

Only one character, 'ANGSTROM SIGN(codepoint 02-82)' in JIS X 0208,
is not supported in the NFC form.
The character is mapped to 'U+212B: ANGSTROM SIGN' in the Unicode,
and U+212B will be noramlized into U+00C5.
There are no Unicode to JIS mapping defined for U+00C5.

Currently we don't have any solutions for this problem, so we do not
support the NFC feature in our product.

Yes, we support the feature.
