Andy Seaborne commented on JENA-177:
------------------------------------
Great - less is more.
Now we've done a release cycle, we can release jena-top v1 at leisure and the
rest catches up.
We could have a "jena-dependencies" module which jena-core depends on which is
a release-sync'ed POM artifact. This separates out the dependency mgt from
jena-top, which is used for misc info, plugin mgt as well as dependency mgt.
Then jena-iri can now be independent of jena-dependencies and still use
jena-top.
Something to consider when/if we reorg the project module structure.

> Jena-core and IRI currently depend on ICU4J for implementing Unicode support.
> Since ICU4J is rather heavyweight of which a rather small fraction is used,
> we should check if there is a way of implementing the functionality in an
> alternative way, either by (i) using built-in (standard) Java classes, (ii)
> other libraries that are already dependencies, or (iii) in a completely
> alternative way. This is also supported by the fact that since relevant parts
> have been initially implemented, Unicode support has been considerably
> extended in Java, see
> http://java.sun.com/developer/technicalArticles/javase/i18n_enhance/.
