Re: DOS linefeeds in icu-3.2.tgz?

Our build system downloads ICU through CVS on a Windows machine, uploads 
it to a Linux machine, uses zip to extract and convert the text files, and 
then it creates a compressed tar file from the extracted files.

It's done this way so that when CVS HEAD is downloaded, the same files are 
going to be in both zip and tar files.  People check in stuff all the 
time.  It's also faster this way.

The DOS newlines in the UTF-8 files aren't intentional, but I don't see 
them being bad either.  vim can handle it quite well.

Re: DOS linefeeds in icu-3.2.tgz?






All of the locale files are UTF-8,  I wonder if that threw off some 
linefeed conversion somewhere.
