For more information about character - -properties and mappings, see <i><a href="http://www.unicode.org/unicode/uni2book/u2.html">The - -Unicode Standard</a></i>.</p> - -<p>The Unicode Character Database has been updated to reflect Version 3.0 of the - -Unicode Standard, with many characters added to those published in Version 2.0. - -A number of corrections have also been made to case mappings or other errors in - -the database noted since the publication of Version 2.0. Normative bidirectional - -properties have also been modified to reflect decisions of the Unicode Technical - -Committee.</p> - -<p>For more information on versions of the Unicode Standard and how to reference - -them, see <a href="http://www.unicode.org/unicode/standard/versions/">http://www.unicode.org/unicode/standard/versions/</a>.</p> - -<h2>Conformance</h2> - -<p>Character properties may be either normative or informative. <i>Normative</i> - -means that implementations that claim conformance to the Unicode Standard (at a - -particular version) and which make use of a particular property or field must - -follow the specifications of the standard for that property or field in order to - -be conformant. The term <i>normative</i> when applied to a property or field of - -the Unicode Character Database, does <i>not</i> mean that the value of that - -field will never change. Corrections and extensions to the standard in the - -future may require minor changes to normative values, even though the Unicode - -Technical Committee strives to minimize such changes. An<i> informative </i>property - -or field is strongly recommended, but a conformant implementation is free to use - -or change such values as it may require while still being conformant to the - -standard. Particular implementations may choose to override the properties and - -mappings that are not normative. In that case, it is up to the implementer to - -establish a protocol to convey that information.</p> - -<h2>Files</h2> - -<p>The following summarizes the files in the Unicode Character Database.
