<p class=MsoNormal>Last DPC of the season, if we're sticking to one a week: As
some of you know, this came up at the BSC meeting at Annual, when it became
clear that there was confusion about the phrase &quot;If the rules for
capitalization require converting the letters <span class=normalbold>i/j</span>
or <span class=normalbold>u/v</span> to uppercase or lowercase...&quot;
because, in fact, &quot;uppercase or lowercase&quot; aren't reciprocal here. It
will never be the case that an uppercase <b>J</b> or <b>U</b> will be converted
to lowercase, see footnote 26 in Appendix G, which reads &quot;An uppercase<b>
J</b> or <b>U</b> in the source signals a modern distribution, in which <b>i</b>
and<b> j</b> are functioning as separate letters, as are <b>u</b> and <b>v</b>,
requiring no special consideration while converting case.&quot; <o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>Proposed change: replace the standard phrase as follows...<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>Existing wording: If the rules for capitalization require
converting the letters<span class=normalbold> i/j</span> or <span
class=normalbold>u/v</span> to uppercase or lowercase.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>New wording: If the rules for capitalization require
converting the letters<span class=normalbold> I</span> or <span
class=normalbold>V</span> to lowercase or<span class=normalbold> i</span>, <span
class=normalbold>j</span>, <span class=normalbold>u</span>, or <span
class=normalbold>v</span> to uppercase.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>Discussion is open to anyone through DCRM-L for one week.
BSC members will be asked to vote on the proposed change on December 14.<o:p></o:p></p>
