The Unicode Technical Committee has posted two new issues for public
review and comment. Details are on the following web page:

             http://www.unicode.org/review/

Review periods for the new items close on August 15, 2003.

Please see the page for links to discussion and relevant documents.
Briefly, the two new issues are:

Issue #9  Bengali Reph and Ya-Phalaa
Proposal: Resolve an ambiguity with regard to handling of reph and
ya-phalaa in Bengali implementation by using ZWNJ between Ra and Halant
(Virama).

Issue #10  Interlinear Annotation Characters
Proposal: Change the General Category for the Interlinear Annotation
Characters from Cf to Po (Punctuation Other), and thereby change the status

to not be Default_Ignorable_Code_Points.
