<P>That is a case for suppress-script for ko <BR>although in fact it is not our job to redo subtags simply because people do not quite understand how to use these.</P>
<P>Do persons using the hanja chracters or the Latin script forms almost always tag their content properly?? If so then I support the suppress-script of kore for ko, but otherwise I do not.</P>
<P>I do not think we should arbitrarily pick a default writing system. </P>
<P><BR>Also, how do people tag the language when kore encompasses a smattering of hanja (as ko-kore)? <BR>Or are these characters tagged separately? That is, what is the proper way to tag the kore variant with a smattering of hanja characters??</P>
<P>And what is the way kore script with a smattering of hanja characters is commonly tagged (by most content authors)?</P>
<P>(Sorry, to ask so many questions; like I said Asian languages are not my domain.)</P>
<P><BR>(I note that Doug has withdrawn his request to register this subtag as suppress-script but I guess it is still on the table)</P>
