Re: [gnso-iocrc-dt] The list of "temporarily reserved strings"

[Alan Greenberg <alan.greenberg@xxxxxxxxx>]

Jim, on reading your message and getting quite confused, I looked 
once more at my original note and realized that I had interchanged 
the titles. It should have read:
IOC: The GAC list includes Danish/Norwegian and Japanese that are not 
in the AG.
Red Cross: The lists are almost identical, except to my untrained eye 
(as well as Google Translate), the Arabic version in the two 
documents seem quite different.
Sorry for the error.  Alan
