ICU is definitely better since we already have a lot of code using ICU and AFAIK our current IDN functions (idn_to_*) use ICU. Which means it would be advantageous to keep it in the single library - whatever bugs there may be, at least the user will be dealing with one set of bugs instead of two :) -- Stanislav Malyshev, Software Architect SugarCRM: http://www.sugarcrm.com/
