The agenda follows.

  * P3094R3: std::basic_fixed_string <https://wg21.link/p3094r3>
  * P3045R1: Quantities and units library <https://wg21.link/p3045r1>
  * P3258R0: Formatting of charN_t <https://wg21.link/p3258r0>

SG16 has not previously reviewed P3094, but did discuss a fixed_string
type in the context of a predecessor paper, P2980R0 (A motivation,
scope, and plan for a physical quantities and units library)
<https://wg21.link/p2980r0> during its 2023-11-29 meeting
<https://github.com/sg16-unicode/sg16-meetings/blob/master/README-2023.md#november-29th-2023>.
Since we're fairly familiar with the subject matter, so I'll ask Mateusz
to provide a brief overview and we'll move on to discussion of any
concerns. SG16 has not previously polled this paper or its predecessor;
the LEWG chair will be looking for SG16 to bless this paper even if we
don't see SG16 specific concerns to ensure this paper is ready for
progress in Wrocław.

SG16 reviewed previous revisions of P3045 during its 2023-11-29 meeting
<https://github.com/sg16-unicode/sg16-meetings/blob/master/README-2023.md#november-29th-2023>
and 2024-01-24 meeting
<https://github.com/sg16-unicode/sg16-meetings/blob/master/README.md#january-24th-2024>.
Previous discussion concerned which encodings to support and
representation for symbols, particularly those not represented in the
basic character sets. Mateusz can provide an overview of the changes and
any relevant design changes that have been made. The LEWG chair will
also be looking for SG16 to determine if there are any lingering SG16
concerns that would prevent this paper progressing at Wrocław.

P3258R0 comes to us courtesy of Corentin and seeks to achieve what most
people expect to be trivial but which we have always known to be
impossible; provide formatting and I/O support for text in char/N/_t,
sort of, as limited by the characters representable in the ordinary and
wide literal encodings. Corentin to provide an overview and frown while
the rest of us quibble about transcoding details and locale encodings
and, probably, reluctantly, conclude that the behavior Corentin has
proposed is how things should be.

Tom.
