> 30  Bengali Khanda Ta  (Closes 2004.06.08)
> 
> The description of khanda ta in section 9.2 of Unicode 4.0 and in one of  
> the current Indic FAQs assumed a particular understanding of expected  
> behaviors rather than stating those expectations explicitly. Due to certain  
> wording and an atypical use of ZERO WIDTH JOINER, some implementers have  
> been misled about the behaviors related to khanda ta that were assumed.
> 
> In the course of investigating this issue, input was received suggesting  
> that the atypical use of ZERO WIDTH JOINER was problematic, and that a  
> different encoded representation for khanda ta should be adopted.
> 
> Alternate representations for khanda ta are described and evaluated in the  
> review document. It is proposed that the existing representation specified  
> in section 9.2 be retained, but that the description in the Standard be  
> revised to remove any ambiguity and potential for misunderstanding.
