Briefly, the new issue is:
46 Proposal for Encoded Representations of Meteg
In some Biblical Hebrew usage, it is considered necessary to distinguish
how the meteg mark positions relative to a vowel point: to the left of the
vowel, or to the right; or, in the case of a hataf vowel, between the two
components of the hataf vowel. A solution for this has been proposed using
control characters, including the zero width joiner and non-joiner
characters. This public-review issue is soliciting feedback on this
proposed solution.
