Dear All,

A new version of draft-freytag-troublesome-characters-01.txt has been posted to the IETF repository. This standards track internet-draft aims to address the IAB Statement and more. 

This has many code points Latin GP is considering in its variant analysis.

Abstract:

    Unicode's design goal is to be the universal character set for all

    applications.  The goal entails the inclusion of very large numbers

    of characters.  It is also focused on written language; special

    provisions have always been needed for identifiers.  The sheer size

    of the repertoire increases the possibility of accidental or

    intentional use of characters that can cause confusion among users,

    particularly where linguistic context is ambiguous, unavailable, or

    impossible to determine.  A registry of code points that can be

    sometimes especially problematic may be useful to guide system

    administrators in setting parameters for allowable code points in an

    identifier system, and to aid applications in creating security aids

    for users.
