I'm looking at using the APR libraries with an open-source genealogy package that is undergoing a complete rewrite and needs to be packed and shipped as a static binary. Since the software is MIT-licenced, using GNU gettext/iconv is impossible because of GPL contamintaion.
I noticed that apr-iconv is based on Konstantin Chugev's iconv-1.0. He has a iconv-2.0 which has some improvement (more CCS/CES supported, slightly enhanced API, etc). I haven't taken a good look at the extent of the changes that have been made to apr-iconv post-import (nor to the changes between iconv-1.0 and iconv-2.0), but I'm wondering if it would be useful to import iconv-2.0 and carry on from there, as Konstantin hasn't provided any new releases since Nov/00. Thanks, -- Matt Emmerton
