Hi,

list) by this email address.

I'd like to un-subscribe, but the webpage button uses an outlook I have not. 
There for I request by this mail, manually.

Please un-subscribe:

Kind regards,

Unicode 7.0 goals and ++

[Ernest van den Boogaard]

For the long term, I suggest Unicode should aim for this:

Unicode 6.5 should claim: There will be a Unicode dictionary, limiting and 
reducing ambiguous semantics within Unicode
(Background: e.g. the word character will have one single crisp definition, 
or can be specified to  at any special point).

Unicode 7.0 should claim: The Unicode definitions will be in distinct, abstract 
layers.
(Background: Unicode is not layered, multiple areas of knowledge mix. Just 
think of what the 7-layer OSI model has benefited the internet industry: 
separating the frequency from the packet from the byte from the character. 
There might be needed more dimensions, like for detailing normative from 
informative).

Unicode 8.0 should claim: Static information will be defined and published in 
XML.
(Background: data, so think tables, lists, have one open standard structure).

Unicode 9.0 should claim: Processes will be defined and published in UML 2.0 
(for lack of an open standard)
(Background: think UAX #9 Bidi written in a universal -graphic- language).

I might have the numbering wrong, or ever the sequence. But not the main line, 
is it?

In 5.2, Chapter 2.4 table 2-3 is listed which General Categories are 
characters. Out are: Surrogates, Private Use, Non-characters and Reserved 
code points. Note that Format characters (Cf) are included as characters. The 
code points with formatting aspects in C0 and C1 are Controls (Cc), so 
excluded.

Total number of characters in 6.0 is 109,242+142=109,384.

  The announcement gives a link to click through.
 
  There you will find more statistics.
 
 I guess you mean Character Assignment Overview at
 
   http://www.unicode.org/versions/Unicode6.0.0/
 
 However it does not provide the precise answer to my primary question,
 which is not purely arithmetic but depends on the definition of the
 character. In particular, do noncharacters belong to characters?
