Shriramana Sharma asked:
> So what happened to Telugu nukta?
What happened is this. The character was discussed among a bunch of
other characters during an ad-hoc group that met during UTC #102.
The document under discussion by the ad-hoc group was *not* a formal
proposal, it was a slide presentation by Om Vikas, which mentioned a
number of characters as potential candidates for encoding. That document
is L2/05-063. Many of the symbols discussed there eventually were
encoded as part of the (recent) Vedic updates, and in version 5.0 of
Unicode.
The notes from that ad-hoc meeting, L2/05-070 say this:
> Telugu sign Nukta. Good candidate for encoding, but needs a full, detailed
> proposal to be submitted by India.
There was never any follow-up on this character, as far as I know. That
is, no proposal was ever submitted, and no documentation or examples
were submitted. Nothing further happened with that character.
