Log Message:
ICU 3.2 includes the latest bug fixes, locale/charset updates, and
performance/build/porting enhancements. The following list summarizes
the main new features in this release.sion.

CLDR 1.2.

This is the main new feature in the release. ICU locale data is now completely
built from the CLDR 1.2 data, which contains data for 232 locales, covering 72
languages and 108 territories. Many translated names for languages,
territories, and scripts have been added, as well as for time zones,
calendars, and other named items such as collation. For more information,
see http://www.unicode.org/press/pr-cldr1.2.html.

Miscellaneous

Universal Timescale conversions. ICU now provides mechanisms for quickly and
reliably converting between the different binary representations of date/time
used on different platforms.

Accept-Language. ICU provides a mechanism for matching Accept-Language against
 a list of locales.

DateFormat and Calendar Performance. Object construction performance has been
  significantly improved.

Footprint. The size of executables that statically link to ICU has been
 reduced.

Stdin. The icuio library can now read from stdin.

UnicodeSet C API. More uset_* C API were added.

i5/OS (os/400). Building ICU has been simplified to allow more configure
 options to work.

POSIX. Default codepage determination has been fixed.
