ICU 72.1

We are pleased to announce the release of Unicode® ICU 72. It updates to Unicode 15, and to CLDR 42 locale data with various additions and corrections.

ICU 72 and CLDR 42 are major releases, including a new version of Unicode and major locale data improvements.

ICU 72 adds two technology preview implementations based on draft Unicode specifications:

• Formatting of people’s names in multiple languages (CLDR background on why this feature is being added and what it does)
• An enhanced version of message formatting

This release also updates to the time zone data version 2022e (2022-oct). Note that pre-1970 data for a number of time zones has been removed, as has been the case in the upstream tzdata release since 2021b.

For details, please see https://icu.unicode.org/download/72.

Note: The prebuilt WinARM64 binaries below should be considered alpha/experimental.
