At Unicode we see three areas of discussion: 1 Representation of characters This is a datatype issue, and the discussion of the proposed UTF-16 support would fall here 2 Identifiers This is the issue Tom referred to. There are several strategies worth discussing 3 Character Properties / Processing If we can make progress with the first two, it might make sense to broaden the discussion to consider this issue. We are working on creating a paper that we can submit from the Unicode side to help with the discussion of these three issues - that's why I have refrained from doing more than list them here. By accident of schedule, our next meeting is in the week directly before the ad-hoc meeting; we will try to come up with something earlier than that, if we can. A./
