BB Sentence ending Udatta
BC Jatya Svarita (Non-Taittiriya Yajurveda)
BD Svarita (Maitrayaniya)
BE Anudatta (Kathaka)
[MISC]
BF Abbreviation Sign
(see: http://www.cfynn.dircon.co.uk/Misc/ISCIIVedic.html)

Of these B8 Anudatta appears to have already been encoded at U+0952 and BF
Abbreviation Sign is already encoded as U+0970.

How do the rest of the Vedic Characters in ISCII Annex-G correspond to the Vedic
Characters in the proposed code chart and names list
