Hello,
Someone on the ICU team recently compared the use of "\w" between ICU, Java,
and Unicode TR#18
<http://www.unicode.org/reports/tr18/#Compatibility_Properties> .
The results are in the following ICU bug
<http://bugs.icu-project.org/trac/ticket/10006>.
A question for core-libs-dev is, does Java plan to change the semantics of \w
to match TR#18's list?
It appears the "standard" has just added one more entry \p{Join_Control}
during their last update :-( I may consider to update the spec/impl to match
that, I would assume there is no any jdk7 application really has dependency
on the updated \w (in jdk7).
