* CLDR 30.0.2: For details of the many changes in CLDR, see CLDR 30. Some things to note:
* For some combinations of numbering system (arab, arabext, latn) and/or locale (ar, fa, he), there were changes to the bidirectional control characters used with certain symbols (percent, minus, plus), and changes to number patterns (currency and/or percent, including addition of bidirectional control characters in some cases).
* Thhe bidirectional controls used for such purposes include U+061C ARABIC LETTER MARK (ALM), which requires use of the bidirectional algorithm from Unicode 6.3 or later.
* The time separator for Norwegian locales (nb, nn) was changed to be \':\' throughout.
* Unicode 9.0: Version 9.0 adds exactly 7,500 characters, for a total of 128,172 characters. These additions include six new scripts, 19 symbols for the new 4K TV standard, and 72 new emoji characters.
* Draft Emoji 4.0 data
* Emoji updates for word & line breaking
* UBiDiTransform/BidiTransform API for convenient transformation of text between different Bidi layouts.
* MeasureFormat API for measurement unit display names
* Most COUNT and LIMIT enum constants have been deprecated
* SpoofChecker: Handling of \"whole script confusables\" has been removed from ICU, in accordance with its removal from UTS #39 Version 9.0.0 and the removal of the corresponding Unicode data file.
* Greek uppercasing (\"el\" locale ID) removes most diacritics.
* More robust locale data loading across ICU implementation code.
* Reduced heap memory usage in DateTimePatternGenerator
* Fri Mar 25 2016 jengelhAATTinai.de- Update to new upstream release 57.1
* CLDR 29 support
* Grapheme/word/line breaking for emoji sequences, based on Unicode 9 proposed rules.

* DateFormat day period formatting of \"noon\", \"at night\", etc. via new pattern characters b & B, and DateTimePatternGenerator support of C for selecting the customary form.
* RelativeDateTimeFormatter: Simpler formatting API.
* New simple & fast SimpleFormatter class for a trivial subset of MessageFormat as used in CLDR data.
* Fri Oct 09 2015 jengelhAATTinai.de- Update to new upstream release 56.1
* CLDR 28: For details of the many changes in CLDR, see CLDR 28.
* Unicode data updated to Unicode 8.0: 41 new emoji characters, 5,771 new ideographs for Chinese/Japanese/Korean, 6 new scripts, improved character properties data, etc.
* ICU data size reduced by about 7.2% (1.8MB) via sharing string values across resource bundles.
* DateIntervalFormat now handles intervals with seconds, and sets FieldPosition more consistently.
* DateFormat::createInstanceForSkeleton() caches DateFormat patterns rather than DateTimePatternGenerator instances, for better performance (for cache hits) and lower heap memory consumption.
* StringSearch (based on collation) defaults to matches on normalization boundaries rather than grapheme cluster boundaries, which yields more matches on Indic text.
* RuleBasedNumberFormat (spelled-out numbers) now handles infinity, NaN.
* Most of the old Normalizer/unorm.h had been replaced by (and reimplemented via) Normalizer2, and is now deprecated.
* COLON has been withdrawn as a date pattern character corresponding to the date field [UDAT_]TIME_SEPARATOR_FIELD; there is currently no pattern character corresponding to that field.
