The work on this finished some time ago and it was published early last
year. The official designation is ISO/IEC DTR 15942.

The published version is under ISO/IEC copyright, so you have to buy it
from your local standards source. However a very late draft version is
at:

http://anubis.dkuug.dk/JTC1/SC22/WG9/n359.pdf

I believe that this is still under ISO/IEC copyright, so I guess you can
read it, but not copy it further. An earlier (but not substantially
different) version that isn't under ISO/IEC copyright was published in
Ada Letters - Volume XVIII Number 4, July/August 1998.

Cheers,

Phil
