We, in the FarsiWeb Project, have recently finished a standard draft
titled "Information Technology -- Persian Information Interchange and
Display, Based on Unicode", which will be submitted to Iranian standards
body (ISIRI) for approval as a national standard.

For those interested, it is available at:

        http://farsiweb.sharif.edu/standard/

(Note: the text of the draft is in Persian.)

The draft proposes the use of Unicode as the character set, specifies the
characters that should be used for Persian, refers to various RFCs and
Unicode Annexes for things ranging from The Bidirectional Algorithm to
Normalization Forms and Transformation Formats, and includes an
overclarified version of Arabic joining algorithm, compatible with
Unicode's.
