In recent postings in comp.unix.wizards, International language support
has been mentioned.  Dave Decot (spelling ?) @ HP indicated that there is
on-going standards development in these areas.  I'd really like to find
out more about what is going on.  Would folks involved with this care to
comment ??
  My particular area of interest is Asian Language Support.  I'm aware
of the JIS C6220 and JIS C6226 for Kana & Kanji support.  There was some
talk a few years back of developing an ISO standard for Kanji/Chinese Han Zi.
Has anything happened ? What coding standards do exist for characters other
than the JIS standards mentioned above ? 
  I'd also be interested in the European support, particularly X/OPEN 
standards that exist or are in development.  In fact, it would be nice
if X/OPEN could post (quarterly perhaps) a summary of its standards 
development.  This newsgroup seems under-utilised as it is.
