Re: Unicode::Collate question

Has anyone had a look at the OpenI18N/ICU locale data?

The locales there are all UTF-8 and have java rule based collation data, so they *might* be useful for creating a more comprehensive (and accurate) set
of sort modules? The downside is this data is pretty rough ATM but does
seem to be improving slowly.

It seems that they are working on separating the "locale data" from
the ICU, calling the data CLDR:
