Add Form 6-K to Filing Type

[jasontwright]

When a non-U.S. issuer files an annual, semi-annual, or quarterly financial report with the regulators in its home country, it must submit a cover statement on the foreign filings to the SEC, which relieves the burden of dual reporting for certain non-U.S. issuers who must file under these rules. In essence, this supplements the 20-F, which you have already included in the filing type.

Since any information that a foreign company issues to its local securities regulators, investors or stock exchange must also be submitted on the Form 6-K, the 6-K is a catchall for material information that arises in between annual and quarterly financial reports, which are also submitted to the SEC.

Information is considered material to a foreign private issuer if it involves a change in business, change in management or control, material changes in the outstanding number of securities, change in accountants, changes in securities, bankruptcy or receivership, material legal proceedings, etc.

This should also make its way to the revamped v4 update I am working towards :).
