The following rule added 4/97.
When character set negotiation is in effect for records, if a requested record is not available in one of the negotiated character sets the target will substitute a surrogate diagnostic for the record. The origin may determine the supported character sets for a record, using a mechanism such as eSpec-1.
The origin may override the negotiation by requesting the record according to one of the supported character sets (again, using a mechanism such as espec-1).
- The negotiation record should occur in the User-Information-field parameter of the Init request.
- If the target responds with a negotiation record of this type it should occur in the User-Information-Field parameter of the Init response.
- Negotiation pertains to language only, and not to character sets.
- The negotiation record should occur in the Other-Information parameter of the Init request.
- If the target responds that version 3 is in force and includes a negotiation record of this type it should occur in the Other- Information parameter of the Init response.
- If the target responds that version 2 is in force (but still recognizes the Other-Information parameter in the request), and includes a negotiation record of this type it should occur within the User-Information-field parameter of the Init response. In this case, negotiation pertains to language only, and not to character sets.
The ASN.1 for this definition follows.

response [2] IMPLICIT TargetResponse}
--
-- For character sets:
-- Origin proposes one, two, or all three of the following, in order of
-- preference:
-- (a) 2022 character sets.
-- (b) 10646 character set.
-- (c) Private character set.
--
-- The target responds with one of (a), (b), or (c), indicating the
-- character set(s) to be supported for all name and message strings.
--
-- If the origin includes (a),
-- the origin proposes:
-- (1) A proposed environment: 7-bit, 8-bit, or no-preference.
-- (2) A set of iso 2022 registration numbers.
-- (3) One or more proposed initial sets of registration numbers,
-- for c0,c1, g0,g1,g2 and g3. These must come from (2).
-- (4) The proposed encoding level.
-- And if the target selects (a), it responds with:
-- (1) A selected environment: 7-bit or 8-bit.
-- (2) A subset of the set of iso 2022 registration numbers proposed
-- by the origin.
-- (3) The initial set of registrations, which must come from (2)
-- but need not be from the set of initial registrations proposed
-- by the origin.
-- (4) The encoding level; less than or equal to that proposed.
--
-- If the origin includes (b),
-- The origin proposes:
-- (1) A list of collections (i.e. subsets of characters from the
-- complete 10646 definition).
-- (2) An implementation level.
-- (3) The encoding level: 2 or 4 byte.
-- And if the target selects (b), it responds by choosing a subset of the
-- collections proposed by the origin in (1), an implementation level less
-- than or equal to that proposed by the origin in (2), and an encoding
-- level less that or equal to that proposed by the origin in (3).
--
-- If the origin includes (c), the origin proposes one of the following:
-- (1) A list of private character sets, by one or more object
-- identifiers.
-- (2) A list of private character sets, by an EXTERNAL.
-- (3) An indication to use a private, previously agreed upon
-- character set.
-- And if the target selects (c):
-- - If the origin proposed (1), the target should respond with (1), and
-- the list of object identifiers should be a subset of the list that
-- the origin included.
-- - If the origin proposed (2), the target should respond with (2), using
-- the same EXTERNAL definition (but not necessarily the same content)
-- used by the origin.
-- - If the origin proposed (3), the target should respond with (3).
--
-- For Languages:
-- The origin optionally proposes one or more language codes. The target
-- response may include a single language code, which indicates the
-- language to be used for all message strings. The target may include or
-- omit this, whether or not the origin included a proposed set, and the
-- language code indicated need not be from among those proposed.

-- The 10646 object identifier looks like:
-- 1.0.10646.1.implementationLevel.repertoireSubset.arc1.arc2. ....
--
-- (The second '1' is for "part 1" of 10646.)
--
-- ImplementationLevel is 1-3
--
-- repertoireSubset is 0 or 1, for 'all' or 'collections'.
-- The arcs are present only if repertoireSubset is 'collections',
-- in which case arc1, arc2, etc., are the
-- identifiers of collections of character repertoires.
--
-- There is a second 10646 oid, for specifying 2 or 4 bytes:
-- 1.0.10646.1.0.bytes
--
-- (The second '0' represents "transfer syntax".)
--
-- where bytes is 2 or 4.
