I think for glibc, this has little impact. > http://blog.unicode.org/2015/03/unicode-80-beta-review.html > > Unicode 8.0.0 comprises several changes which require careful migration in > implementations, including the conversion of Cherokee to a bicameral script, That means Cherokee has upper and lower case now, lots of characters get added to "toupper", "tolower", "totitle" in the "i18n" file. > a different encoding model for New Tai Lue, and additional character > repertoire. Many New Tai Lue characters which were combining characters before are not combining characters anymore. > Implementers need to change code and check assumptions regarding > case mappings New Tai Lue syllables, Han character ranges, and confusables. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
