The Unicode Technical Committee has posted a new issue for public
review and comment. Details are on the following web page:
http://www.unicode.org/review/
Review periods for the new item closes on November 8, 2004.
Please see the page for links to discussion and relevant documents.
Briefly, the new issue is:
55 Proposed Change to Character Properties for Two Katakana Characters
The UTC has received to change the General Category of two characters.
Reports indicate that they should not have the General Category "Connector
Punctuation" (gc=Pc) because the characters don't connect other elements,
they separate elements. The two characters are:
U+30FB KATAKANA MIDDLE DOT
U+FF65 HALFWIDTH KATAKANA MIDDLE DOT
The proposal is to change the General Category of those characters from
"Pc" (Connector Punctuation) to "Po" (Other Punctuation).
