The WinCairo port is as close to the AppleWin port as possible. It uses ICU and I have no intention of changing that.
The WinCE port is maintained by Patrick Gangsterer. I believe that this port does not want to use ICU, preferring to use the limited subset of i18n features provided by the operating system. I have heard from a number of people, mainly using WebKit in resource constrained environments, who prefer to omit ICU due to its relatively large footprint. But many of their concerns about library size might be satisfied by rebuilding ICU with settings that omit the large encoding database. This makes sense if their use cases do not need these features. -Brent Sent from my iPad > On Oct 4, 2013, at 11:48 PM, Dirk Schulze <dschu...@adobe.com> wrote: > > >> On Oct 5, 2013, at 7:37 AM, Darin Adler <da...@apple.com> wrote: >> >> Any thoughts on this?
