[109-C30] Consensus: Accept solution 2a, to fix the glyphs for U+047C and U+047D and to provide annotations that U+047D is a misnomer for "beautiful omega".  [L2/06-357]

[109-A69] Action Item for Asmus Freytag, Editorial Committee: Issue an erratum for omega with titlo (U+047C and U+047D), as per consensus 109-C30. [L2/06-357]

[109-C31] Consensus: Accept solution 3a without the addition of cyrillic capital letter OU (see page 5) for Cyrillic "uk". This amounts to a recommendation to add two monograph Uk characters. See consensus 109-C32. [L2/06-357]

[109-A70] Action Item for Ken Whistler: Update annotation of U+0478 and U+0479 to explain their ambiguity and their relationship to the newly encoded "Uk" from L2/06-357.

[109-C32] Consensus: Accept in principle the encoding the first 2 columns of Cyrillic characters in L2/06-359 without change. The author should resubmit this proposal with the deletion of characters xx20 and xx22, and a new code position for xx25 (in an area with other non-spacing marks). Also remove xx27 and xx28 from the proposal before resubmitting.

[109-A71] Action Item for Ken Whistler: Add an annotation to U+033E COMBINING VERTICAL TILDE indicating that it is the paerok and isn't for palatalization.

[109-A72] Action Item for Eric Muller: Get the original Birnbaum document from Joe Becker and additional information that puts it in context. Add that document to the document register.

Scripts - Devanagari (C.22)

[109-A73] Action Item for Swaran Lata: Engage in more discussion on the proposed additional Devanagari characters in India and return to UTC with the results. [L2/06-373]

Scripts - Malayalam (C.5)

[109-A74] Action Item for Ken Whister: Add the consonant sign cillu to the rejected characters list. [L2/06-261]

[109-A75] Action Item for Swaran Lata: Investigate cillaksharams YA and TA. [L2/06-337, L2/06-343]

[109-A76] Action Item for Debbie Anderson: Send to Swaran Lata the proposal draft on additional Malayalam fractions by Anshuman Pandey. [L2/06-260]

Scripts - Telugu (C.6.1)

[109-A77] Action Item for Michael Kaplan: Respond to the proposer of 18 additional Telegu characters that some characters are already in FPDAM 3 and these should not be disturbed. The remainder can be resubmitted at another time. Putting fractions into a separate block won't work because some are already encoded elsewhere. [L2/06-267]

[109-A78] Action Item for Swaran Lata: Investigate the 18 characters proposed for Telugu. [L2/06-267]

[109-A79] Action Item for Eric Muller: In preparing the UTR on Indic issues, consider document L2/06-334, and add to the Telugu discussion of alternate forms of "R" analogous to Gurmukhi.

Scripts -  Ancient Roman (C.1) 

[109-C33] Consensus: Accept 11 ancient Roman characters for encoding  in a future version of the standard.: [L2/06-269]

[109-A81] Action Item for Michel Suignard: Add the characters in consensus items 109-C23 through 109-C33 to PDAM 4 ballot comments.

Scripts - Tamil (C.16)

[109-A82] Action Item for Rick McGowan: Respond to author of the Tamil proposal that these characters will not be encoded because they can already be represented with existing sequences. [L2/06-301]
