Proposal to add the Samaritan alphabet to the BMP of the UCS

This is a proposal to encode the Samaritan script in the international character encoding standard Unicode. The script was published in Unicode Standard version 5.2 in October 2009. Samaritan is used to write Samaritan Hebrew and Samaritan Aramaic. It is used by small Samaritan communities in Israel and the Palestinian Territories, primarily for religious purposes
