            Bug ID: 213999
           Summary: [WTF] Bundle ICU
           Product: WebKit
           Version: WebKit Nightly Build
          Hardware: Unspecified
                OS: Unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Web Template Framework
          Assignee: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
          Reporter: ysuzuki at apple.com

Discussed with Phil. ECMA402 is integrating a lot of Intl features which can be only usable on the latest ICU 67. And these APIs are marked as draft APIs.
If we wait for stable APIs for these features, and if we wait for shipping of ICU in macOS which includes stable APIs, then it is likely that we will get 2~ years behind in Intl features, that's not a non-starter.
We decided bundling the latest ICU into WebKit.
