This is to upgrade the Java 2 Platform to conform with the latest Unicode standard. Some of the new features are:
- Add new character properties for the 10,000+ new characters. This means that
several new properties will be created and existing ones will be updated in the
Character class.
- Add new case mappings. Case mappings allow upper and lowercase operations.
- Update normalization rules.
- Update collation to work with new chars as appropriate.
- Update word and line breaking.
- character converters work with updated chars
