Missing values in mapping-tables?

Hello.

I am very new to Unicode and are trying to understand and learn this
interesting subject.
My first encounter was to convert normal 8-bit characters to Unicode
using the mapping-tables from unicode.org <http://www.unicode.org/Public/MAPPINGS/ISO8859/>.

But when I looked at "8859-8.TXT" it is actually missing the entries
between 0xBF-0xDE and 0xFF.
My guess is that this is intended, and that the 8bit-character has the
same value in Unicode (0xBF is 0x00BF).

Am I right or am I on the wrong track?

Regards...
