55 =head1 NOTES
56
57 Due to size concerns, C<GB 18030> (an extension to C<GBK>) is distributed
58 separately on CPAN, under the name L<Encode::HanExtra>. That module
59 also contains extra Taiwan-based encodings.
60
61 =head1 BUGS
62
63 When you see C<charset=gb2312> on mails and web pages, they really
64 mean C<euc-cn> encodings.  To fix that, C<gb2312> is aliased to C<euc-cn>.
65 Use C<gb2312-raw> when you really mean it.
66
67 The ASCII region (0x00-0x7f) is preserved for all encodings, even though
68 this conflicts with mappings by the Unicode Consortium.  See
69
70 L<http://www.debian.or.jp/~kubota/unicode-symbols.html.en>
71
72 to find out why it is implemented that way.
