Unfortunately, I cannot answer your question directly. However, I can point you to another resource which might help. If you have questions about Unicode, you might want to check out the Perl Mailing List Database and subscribe to the Unicode list. A quick check of their archives shows that the list is fairly active.

Cheers,
Ovid
