Ken Whistler suggested that I provide a pointer to the paper I mentioned
yesterday in relation to the following comment I made:

> You should read the allocation paper that Becker and I did a long time
> ago, which has been adopted, at least in principle, by both UTC and WG2.
> It is a rational plan with some good rules of thumb about character
encoding.

The paper I meant is on the Unicode.ORG ftp site at:
        pub/TechReports/AllocPaper.txt
The header is attached below. I don't know what number WG2 assigned to the
modification of this that they finally adopted, but maybe someone else has a
URL for it...
