50 =head1 NOTES
51
52 Due to size concerns, C<GB 18030> (an extension to C<GBK>) is distributed
53 separately on CPAN, under the name L<Encode::HanExtra>. That module
54 also contains extra Taiwan-based encodings.
55
56 =head1 BUGS
57
58 ASCII part (0x00-0x7f) is preserved for all encodings, even though it
59 conflicts with mappings by the Unicode Consortium.  See
