Dear Rick and List and Peter K. and Mark Shoulson and
Michael Everson and John Hudson:

Peter and Mark and Michael and John wrote proposals
for more Tiberian Hebrew to add to the 05 Hebrew
block. There are ~10 more possible Tiberian thingies
to add not yet proposed. So that leaves 20 code
points minus whatever is accepted from Peter/Mark/
Michael/John's 2004 proposals.

Quotes below from the SMP .pdf---I can't put the three
quotes below together intelligibly.
Do the quotes mean that the Linear B syllabary and Old
Italic and Ugaritic are already in permanent locations
in the SMP, or do they mean something else?
Quote 1 from http://www.unicode.org/roadmaps/smp
"This document is informative. Please send corrigenda
and other comments to the authors using the online
contact form. "
Quote 2 from smp roadmap:
"The SMP is tentatively mapped out to the following
zones. Some of these are shaded grey informatively in
the table below. "
Quote 3 from smp roadmap:
"Bold text indicates an allocated (that is, published)
character collection. There is a link to the charts on
the Unicode web site. "
Again, thanks for all enlightenment...EK
