I have just read a new document ``Quotation Character Semantics'',
available on the Web at

        http://www.unicode.org/unicode/uni2errata/QuoteErrata.html

This document discusses quotation character conventions in several
European languages, and a related document ``Apostrophe Semantics''
at

        http://www.unicode.org/unicode/uni2errata/Apostrophe.htm

discusses issues that appear when more than one apostrophe-like
character is available for use, as is the case in Unicode.

I raise these issues on the tex-implementors and latex-l
lists because I believe they are relevant for TeX markup
of documents, and for the LaTeX-3 design.
