Hi Rob,

does that mean that you don't recommend to take the files from OOo (with IBM copyright remark) and start with those from the current ICU instead?

ICU is open source today:  http://site.icu-project.org/

The license is the ICU License:
http://source.icu-project.org/repos/icu/icu/trunk/license.html

According to the ICU web site,  ICU is used by several Apache
projects, including: Harmony, Lucene, Solr, PDFBox, Tika, Xalan and
Xerces

If we use the latest version of the breakiterator data from ICU, it
should be fine.

Hi,

another bunch of files that needs some discussion are the data files in the
i18npool module.

These files have been created by a Sun developer, Karl Hong, based on ICU
files. Some of these files contain an IBM copyright header, but no license:

i18npool/source/breakiterator/data/*    (CR by IBM)
i18npool/source/collator/data/*
i18npool/source/indexentry/data/*
i18npool/source/localedata/data/*
i18npool/source/textconversion/data/*

So I think that the breakiterator data should be looked at by some guys from
IBM, the latter can be move to the list of Oracle files.

Regards,
Mathias

I use it for the OOo lists and only rarely read other mails sent to it.
