47 =head1 NOTES
48
49 Due to size concerns, C<GB 18030> (an extension to C<GBK>) is distributed
50 separately on CPAN, under the name L<Encode::HanExtra>. That module
51 also contains extra Taiwan-based encodings.
52
53 =head1 BUGS
54
55 ASCII part (0x00-0x7f) is preserved for all encodings, even though it
56 conflicts with mappings by the Unicode Consortium.  See
