As some of you know, i have written an extension which exposes most of the interesting classes exported by ICU (covering locales, formatting/parsing , calendars, timezones, collation, normalization, regex etc). Having escaped my machine only once, i'd guess it is in early alpha shape. It compiled and worked on the pre-public CVS release, but it has not been tested (or compiled for that matter) on anything other than my machine (Win32/MSVC).

Derick attempted to give it a go, but ended in a sea of compiler errors (under gcc, i presume). i think most errors are due to the mixture of C and C++ code. Other intrepid souls are welcome to try.

Over the next few days, i'll make changes to accomodate the PDM revisions. One issue Derick raised is that because of the sheer size of ICU, we may need to break the extension into more modular parts (each living in PECL until consensus is reached on which makes it to core). Because of this and the compile issue, i'd rather engage some eyes other than mine before attempting a CVS commit.

I'd really like to help out on that part!
