I know that ICONV has been held up by unicode.org license issues. See the following urls http://oss.software.ibm.com/icu/index.html http://oss.software.ibm.com/developer/opensource/locale/ I discussed this with David O'Brien and we both agree that this can be imported into src/sys/gnu and src/contrib, respectively. The big problem is that we do not have localedef, but we can resolve that by importing the NetBSD one, or even the linux one. -- +------------------------------------------------------------------+ | keichii@peorth.iteration.net | keichii@bsdconspiracy.net | | http://peorth.iteration.net/~keichii | Yes, BSD is a conspiracy. | +------------------------------------------------------------------+ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-i18n" in the body of the message
