I think we need to be careful about which version of standards we are talking about. e.g., Unicode 1.1 matches the original version of ISO 10646-1 (sorry, I forget what year), while Unicode 2.0 and 2.1 matches that, plus various Amendments (AMD). Unicode 3.0 matches ISO 10646-1:2000, etc etc. The number after "ISO 10646-" matters, as well the date, and whether there are any AMD's. > And those 40000 more Unicode 3.1 hanzi...
