ICU is MIT-like Lisenced, so you can use it (if you choose to) in any project, open source or commercial. Its only problem is that its a huge Library, if you can extract the conversion code only, then you should use it... It complies to standards... ak. _______________________________________________ General mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.arabeyes.org/mailman/listinfo/general
