This is an interesting summary. Can you produce another comparison,
showing the differences in output of these codecs? Particular
interesting might be cp932, euc-jp, iso-2022-jp, big5, and gb2312.
For these, please find out
a) which characters are encoded in one codec that are not encoded
   in the other (i.e. Unicode code point -> encoding)
b) which characters are decoded in one codec that are not decoded
   in the other (i.e. encoding -> Unicode code point)
c) which characters are encoded differently
d) which characters are decoded differently
