------- Additional comments from yanmin...@openoffice.org Wed Jul 8 05:19:17 +0000 2009 ------- OpenOffice.org is a leading open-source office software suite which is available in many languages and works on all common computers. Some of the features related to locales, such as character collation and text boundary analysis are implemented by means of ICU (International Components for Unicode) but others are not, including lacale data formatting and class of string. ICU is a mature and widely portable set of C/C++ and Java libraries providing consistent Unicode and Globalization support for software applications on all platforms. In order to provide a language experience with same result for our users acrossing different platform, it would make sense of improving usability to re-implement locale data formatting and class of string with APIs of ICU. And it will be never nessarary of maintaining the language, contry, and cultural specific data which is defined in XML format so far. Meanwhile, OpenOffice.org will potentially support new features and new languages with the upgrade of ICU. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
