Title: Changes between UnicodeData-2.1.8.txt and 
UnicodeData-2.1.9d2.txt

Source: Ken Whistler, Sybase

Action: For consideration and approval by UTC

This document summarizes the changes made in the Unicode Character
Database between Version 2.1.8 (the version currrently approved
and posted on the website) and Version 2.1.9d2, which has all the
rolled-up fixes to date since Version 2.1.8.

The changes consist of:

1. [NORMATIVE] Change combining class of U+05AE HEBREW ACCENT ZINOR to 228, to account for the fact that it is above-left, rather than just above.

< 05AE;HEBREW ACCENT ZINOR;Mn;230;ON;;;;;N;;;;;
> 05AE;HEBREW ACCENT ZINOR;Mn;228;ON;;;;;N;;;;;

2. [NORMATIVE] Change combining class of U+20E1 COMBINING LEFT RIGHT ARROW ABOVE from 1 to 230 (above). This was just an out-and-out error in the data, since this character is not enclosing.

< 20E1;COMBINING LEFT RIGHT ARROW ABOVE;Mn;1;ON;;;;;N;NON-SPACING LEFT RIGHT ARROW ABOVE;;;;
> 20E1;COMBINING LEFT RIGHT ARROW ABOVE;Mn;230;ON;;;;;N;NON-SPACING LEFT RIGHT ARROW ABOVE;;;;

3. [NORMATIVE] Add a compatibility decomposition for the U+0F0C, the Tibetan non-breaking tsek, based on feedback from the Tibetan experts group regarding the function of this character.

< 0F0C;TIBETAN MARK DELIMITER TSHEG BSTAR;Po;0;L;;;;;N;;tsek tar;;;
> 0F0C;TIBETAN MARK DELIMITER TSHEG BSTAR;Po;0;L;<noBreak> 0F0B;;;;N;;tsek tar;;;

4. [INFORMATIVE] Add in all the Unicode 1.0 names for Tibetan characters, where it is possible to map them. This information was overlooked in developing the 2.0.14 version of the Unicode Character Database, since Tibetan had been first removed, and then later reencoded.
