    From the Unicode Glossary:

    "Deprecated. A coded character whose use is strongly discouraged."

    From http://www.unicode.org/versions/Unicode4.0.0/, section on Unicode
    Character Database:

    "Deprecated Characters. Two Khmer characters, U+17A3 khmer independent vowel
    qaq and U+17D3 khmer sign bathamasat, were deprecated. Four others are
    strongly discouraged."

    Is it just me, or is the language from the web site confusing? (I know--it's
    just me. :-))
