ICU 74.2

No release notes provided.

ICU 74.1

Unicode® ICU 74 updates to Unicode 15.1, and to CLDR 44 locale data with various additions and corrections.

ICU 74 and CLDR 44 are major releases, including a new version of Unicode and major locale data improvements. They subsume the changes for the ICU 73.2 and CLDR 43.1 maintenance releases.

Unicode 15.1 adds source code security mechanisms, improves line breaking for southeast Asian scripts, and adds important CJK unified ideographs.

CLDR 44 has added or improved data for a number of languages that have been newly added to ICU, and has improved measurement unit handling, conversion, and formatting.

ICU 74 implements these improvements, adds new C APIs for locale handling, adds a plug-in API for word segmentation, and switches the Java build system to Maven.

ICU 73.2

We are pleased to announce the release of Unicode® ICU 73.2. It updates to CLDR 43.1 locale data with various additions and corrections. These are maintenance releases for ICU 73 and CLDR 43, with limited sets of bug fixes and no API or structural changes.

There are significant changes for GB18030-2022 compliance support:

• CLDR extends the support for “short” Chinese sort orders to cover some additional, required characters for Level 2. This is carried over into ICU collation.
• ICU has a modified character conversion table, mapping some GB18030 characters to Unicode characters that were encoded after GB18030-2005.

There are also changes for compatibility:

• There are optional variants of time formats with AM/PM (only for English) using ASCII spaces in CLDR that can also be used in ICU via custom data generation. This is intended to help certain implementers transition to the improved patterns, which have used a narrow no-break space between the time and AM/PM since CLDR 42.
  • For how to generate ICU data with this option, look for alt="ascii" on main/tools/cldr/cldr-to-icu/README.md
• The changes to the word segmentation behavior of @ sign that were in CLDR 42 (ICU 72) have been reverted. These caused problems for certain parsers that did not expect @ to join to letters.

ICU 73.2 and CLDR 43.1 include several other bug fixes, including person name formatting, and Cyrillic transforms.

For details, please see https://icu.unicode.org/download/73.

Note: The prebuilt WinARM64 binaries below should be considered alpha/experimental.
