What do you think? Please note that I am heavily biased because every

Unicode-capable Unix box. If the core language has to be bent INTO

As a European I would be pleased to have an error free unicode
layer :-)
I left Php hoping ruby was more advanced on this side...
In Ruby you can store utf-8 encoded text in strings, use regexes on
utf-8 encoded strings and convert between different encodings using
the iconv library. If I'm not mistaken, this is basically the same as
what you can do in PHP.
If you _need_ a dynamic language with a true and tested Unicode
String type _right now_ you might want to take a look at Python. ;-)
