Hello,

Thank you for this pointer.

Actually, I had looked for this information before I wrote my previous
note, but could not find it; hence, I resorted to TUS 3.0.

The reason for my failure to locate 3.01 on the Unocode WWW site is an
improper organisation of the latter: I followed this trail:
- <http://www.unicode.org/>: About the Unicode/Standard
  - <http://www.unicode.org/unicode/standard/standard.html>:
    Version 3.0
    The most current major version of the Unicode standard...
Here ended my search. It did not occurr to me that I would find an even
more current version of the Unicode standard under the "Versions of the
Unicode Standard" link.

So please make sure that the wording on your "Unicode Standard" page is
not misleading, and that there is a conspicuous link to the current
standard, even if it is not a major version.

Thank you, and best wishes,
   Otto Stolz
