[very OT] Documentation: beyond 65,536 ; misc Semitic ?s

Hello,

Within the book, Unicode 3.0, is there somewhere a long section I missed about all the stuff that happens beyond the "first 65,536," in addition to surrogate stuff? Is there other documentation somewhere?

Today are there still 7,827 unused code values? Will they be unassigned until version 4.0 gels?

Also, is there a linguistic index to Unicode character database files, saying which mention Semitic languages?

And finally, is there documentation somewhere on whether 3.0 has complete symbols for the 18 languages written in Arabic script that are mentioned in the book?

Thanks
Elaine
