Unicode 6.1.0 is a minor version of the Unicode Standard and supersedes all 
previous versions. This page summarizes the important changes for the 
Unicode Standard, Version 6.1.0. In the discussion below, Version 6.1.0 may 
be abbreviated as "Unicode 6.1" or "Version 6.1."

It appears that the main changes to the Unicode standard consist of adding
