      1. One of the documents available on this website is a technical report that presents the specifications of a compression scheme for Unicode and sample implementation (the "Compression Report"). The design phase is completed with the publication of the Compression Report, but we still welcome information regarding implementation experience or corrigenda. Please mail corrigenda and other comments to unicore@unicode.org.
      2. The Compression Report has been considered and approved by the Unicode Technical Committee for publication as a Technical Report. At the current time, the specifications in the Compression Report are provided as information and guidance to implementors of the Unicode Standard, but do not form part of the standard itself. The Unicode Technical Committee may decide to incorporate all or part of the material of the Compression Report into a future version of the Unicode Standard, either as informative, or as normative specification.
      3. The original concept of a standard compression scheme for Unicode was implemented at Reuters and proposed by Misha Wolf and Charles Wicksteed. Extensions and refinements were proposed by Mark Davis, Ken Whistler and Martin Duerst. The final text for the Compression Report and the sample implementations were created by Asmus Freytag.
