I maintain FreeBSD port of ICU and am under pressure to commit a patch, tha= t=20 would allow OpenOffice.org to use the already installed ICU instead of=20 building its own modified version: http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=3D121787 In the past, George Rhoten advised me, that it is ICU's position, that the = bug=20 is in OOo, and that "better" patches exist -- for the OOo. Could you, please, elaborate? We -- the FreeBSD porters -- would really lik= e=20 to avoid duplication... George just notified us, that he no longer participates in ICU. Thanks!
