In annex C of ISO/IEC 10646-2:2001, a source reference file: “CJKC_SR.txt” isprovided with the source reference information. Recent review of the source reference
has shown the following errors:
••
•
••

2F868, unified source should be 36FC instead of 2136A.
2F874, unified source should be 5F53 instead of 5F33,
2F91F, unified source should be 243AB instead of 43AB,
2F958, should have source T6-4267 instead of T6-4627,
2F95F, unified source should be 7AEE instead of 7AAE,
2F9B2, should have source H-8FA8 instead of H-8EA8
2F9BF, unified source should be 45D7 instead of 4D57,

Most of these mistakes were introduced when transcribing the original information from WG2 N2270 which was
the source for many of the source references. This shows the importance of getting the information to the editor in aformat which doesn’t require re-typing; this was unfortunately not the case here.
