Proposed New Characters: Pipeline Table

The following is a summary of the characters, scripts and variation sequences that the Unicode Technical Committee has accepted for inclusion in future versions of the Unicode Standard. It is presented here to help implementers track future additions to the Standard. For more information, including the planned use of remaining code space, see About the Pipeline Table. Experts interested in reviewing proposed scripts should consult the Proposed New Scripts page.

This page was last updated 16-May-2012.

Caution: Use of proposed or accepted characters is at implementers' own risk; the composition and allocation of the characters may change before they are finally published in the Unicode Standard.

NOTE: If the Proposed Allocation or Character Sequence field below is marked with a "*", there is a pending change in the code points for the proposed allocation, a pending name change, or both. Action by a subsequent UTC meeting is required to resolve such differences, and the results will be posted back into this table once the differences between the UTC and ISO positions are formally reconciled by the UTC.

The following colors are used to indicate the entry status in the Pipeline table:

Color Code Entry Status ISO Stage
light yellow not yet in ballot Stages 1- 3, or N/A
light green in active technical ballot (or on hold for ballot) Stages 4, 5 or 6
light gray accelerated for publication in the Unicode Standard while still in active technical ballot Stages 5 or 6
white technical balloting completed and either in approval ballot or pending publication Stages 7 or 8
