As technical work gets underway to prepare the publication of Unicode
7.0 (tentatively scheduled for June, 2014), the Unicode Tecnical
Committee has posted proposed updates for several important specifications:

PRI #260, Proposed Update UTS #10, Unicode Collation Algorithm
<http://www.unicode.org/review/pri260/>
PRI #261, Proposed Update UAX #15, Unicode Normalization Forms
<http://www.unicode.org/review/pri261/>
PRI #262, Proposed Update UAX #44, Unicode Character Database
<http://www.unicode.org/review/pri262/>

In UTS #10, collation weights are discussed more generically, with fewer
references to the 16-bit weights used in the DUCET. /Section 6.3.2,
Large Values for Secondary or Tertiary Weights/ was merged into /Section
6.2, Large Weight Values/. In UAX #44, the derivation of the Alphabetic
property has been updated and the discussion of @missing in Section
4.2.10 @missing Conventions has been simplified to reflect the revised
conventions in the UCD data files, which eliminated special edge cases.

Review periods for these new public review issues close January 27,
2014. For details about reviewing and commenting, please see the Public
Review Issues <http://www.unicode.org/review/> page.
