1 This library is used for processing Unicode text in several high-profile
2 packages, including Chromium and other Webkit browsers, PHP, boost, and
3 many more.

5 Fair warning: ICU tends to break several packages with every major
6 release, so thorough testing is needed when bumping it.
7
8 This package is currently being maintained by proxy by a former Gentoo
9 developer, Arfrever. Given this package's potential to cause problems,
10 this situation is not ideal.
11
12 It would be really great if an active Gentoo developer would step
13 forward and take care of this one.
