I think this would be the best path forward. Obtaining a dynamic version of libicu is relatively straight-forward on all systems and would dodge the licensing issues.
The only reason I'm interested in Boost.Text is that it will help me get rid of my dependency on ICU, with its broken build system and bloat. A version of Boost.Text that relies on ICU has no value to me, and I would not use it. -- Rainer Deyke (rainerd@eldwood.com)
