The paragraph reads:
The most _current major version of the Unicode
standard_ contains 49,194 distinct coded characters.
These characters cover the principal written
languages of the Americas, Europe, the Middle East,
Africa, India, Asia, and the Pacific Basin. Certain
technical reports are approved and part of 3.0. For a
list, see the _Technical Reports_ page. Note that
Version 3.0 is amended by an update version,
_Unicode 3.0.1_.
so the note is at the bottom ("_" indicates a link).
I am not criticizing your message -- if you missed it, certainly a lot of
other people will! We will have to rewrite the paragraph for clarity.
