The document “ISO/IEC JTC1/SC2/WG2 N4106, Report on the ad hoc re
“Teuthonista” (SC2/WG2 N4081) held during the SC2/WG2
meeting at Helsinki, 2011 June 7/8”,
http://std.dkuug.dk/jtc1/sc2/wg2/docs/n4106.pdf
which is linked to from
http://www.unicode.org/roadmaps/bmp/
contains AB32 and AB3D as described in Jean-François Colson’s question.

It does not contain any specific motivation for them; it just lists them
under “Letters for German dialectology”.

As far as I can see, the document summarizes an agreement in an ad hoc
meeting. So it’s not late at all to raise objections, is it?
