Hoi,
The text as prepared by Michael is the link under "working group document".
It is this document that has is also what is valid for Unicode. The code U+20B9
is as far as I know not official and until it is I would feel hesitant of
using it.
Thanks,

But I am not sure whether this is yet submitted to the Unicode consortium.
As per this suggestion, it seems like U+20B9 will be allocated for the new
rupee symbol.

Hoi,
I asked Michael Everson if he had more information about the new symbol
for the rupee. He did and I blogged about it based on his information.
Obviously this is a special case but essentially when there is a need for
new characters there is a procedure for getting them included in Unicode.
Once they are in Unicode, fonts have to support the new characters.
Thanks,
GerardM
