5.2 Generating New Text
http://www.w3.org/TR/unicode-xml/#Generating

"For example to write hello, one should use <i>hello</i> and not the sequence of Unicode characters U+210E, U+212F, U+2113, U+2113, U+2134."

Not a good example. The i tag should not be used merely for presentation according to HTML5. At least we should mention CSS styling.

Addressing issue #15 by changing <i>hello</i> to

<span style='font-style: italic;'>hello</span>.
Also adding character names and using <code> for code.
This also serves as a first trial commit to push to github.
