This is a friendly ping on how you decide on ICU. As a recap, ICU 63
is in a maintenance mode with only bugfixes applied.
As of this, the ICU 63.2-2 in Sid which should be part of Buster
contains the following changes over 63.1-6:
- speed up one of its working (MutableCodePointTrie.build()) with hashtables,
- include the previously backported security fixes,
- adds Japanese Reiwa support,
- updates to the IANA tzdata 2019a release.
It's in our archives _and_ in Ubuntu for almost three weeks without
any regression.
Thanks for consideration,
Laszlo/GCS
