The Unicode Technical Committee has posted "Proposed Draft UTS #40: BOCU-1  
MIME-Compatible Unicode Compression" for public review and comment.
This document describes a Unicode compression scheme that is  
MIME-compatible, directly usable for e-mail, and preserves binary order  
(for databases and sorted lists). It replaces UTN #6 and adds a formal  
description of the algorithms, without substantially changing the  
specification.
Details are on the following web page:
        http://www.unicode.org/review/
The review document itself is here:
        http://www.unicode.org/reports/tr40/tr40-1.html
Review period for the proposed draft closes on May 9, 2006.
