http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=5948 --- Comment #7 from Felix Sasaki <fsasaki@w3.org> 2008-11-13 02:10:28 --- (In reply to comment #6) > I don't see anything in that Unicode stability policy about names of blocks > such as "Greek", which is my biggest concern here. Did I miss something? Also, > a policy for the future doesn't solve the problem for the past - I do think we > need to say something explicit to make sure that a schema using <pattern > value="p{IsGreek}*"/> continues to work. > >From a mail exchange with Mark Davis on the topic: [Soon] "there will be a publicly available stability provision for all of the property aliases and property value aliases on * http://unicode.org/Public/UNIDATA/PropertyValueAliases.txt * http://unicode.org/Public/UNIDATA/PropertyAliases.txt with the exception of Contributory properties listed on <http://www.unicode.org/Public/UNIDATA/UCD.html#Properties>. This is not completely final yet, since the exact wording has to be formulated by the editorial committee, and it actually requires approval by the officers, but I don't anticipate any problems. So that will include block names. Note that that the set of characters having a given property or property value may change (subject to the stability policies). What the above means is that the identifiers will always remain valid, so \p{script=Greek} or equivalent syntax will remain valid. That should address your concerns.
