The Unicode Technical Committee has posted two new issues for public review and comment.
PRI #257, Proposed Update UTR #36, Unicode Security Considerations
PRI #258, Proposed Update UTR #39, Unicode Security Mechanisms
The data for Unicode Technical Standard #39, Unicode Security Mechanisms, has been updated for Unicode 6.3, and there are some important additional changes to the recommended characters for identifiers. There is a new Restriction Level defined in UTS #39, and textual clarifications and fixes to both UTS #39 and UTR #36.
Unicode Technical Report #36, Unicode Security Considerations, is being updated in conjunction with the update of UTS #39 for Unicode 6.3.
As part of this public review, the UTC is soliciting information about links to relevant articles and blog posts which have a bearing on Unicode-related security issues.
Review periods for the new items close on January 27, 2014.

Feedback on repertoire for ISO/IEC 10646:2014 (4th Edition)
ISO/IEC 10646:2014 (4th Edition) is currently in its DIS ballot
stage. Additionally, Amendment 1 to ISO/IEC 10646:2014 (4th Edition) is
currently in its PDAM ballot
stage. Documents showing the Draft
Additional Repertoire for ISO/IEC 10646:2014 (4th Edition) and the Draft
Additional Repertoire for Amendment 1 to ISO/IEC 10646:2014 (4th Edition)
are posted in the UTC Document Register, for reference and feedback.
There is a short window of opportunity to review and comment on these major repertoire additions for the 4th Edition, before the ISO balloting has been completed — at which point no further changes or corrections will be possible. (See http://www.unicode.org/faq/sdos.html for additional information on the stages in ISO standards development.)
The UTC is soliciting feedback on the draft additional repertoire, to help discover any errors in character names, incorrect glyphs, or other problems in the repertoire under ballot. Such feedback will help inform the UTC discussions about its own contribution to the ISO balloting process.
Please see the PRI pages for details and links to the documents for review:
255 Feedback on repertoire for Amendment 1 to ISO/IEC 10646:2014 (4th Edition)
256 Feedback on repertoire for ISO/IEC 10646:2014 (4th Edition)
