Dear ICU users,

You might have noticed that our website was down for a couple of days.
It's back with a new look & feel!

Part of this was a required move from "classic Google Sites" to "new Google Sites". While we lost some text styling, the new version is more mobile-friendly. Please let us know if you find something unreadable.

Also, we took the opportunity to move our main site to https://icu.unicode.org/ -- a mere five years after moving the project stewardship under the Unicode Consortium :-)

http://site.icu-project.org/ still works (well, works again) and now redirects to the new location. We are still working on getting relative page URLs to redirect 1:1 as well, so that old links don't always get you to the homepage.
----
As you probably know, we had already moved the ICU User Guide to GitHub pages under https://unicode-org.github.io/icu/

We had kept the old http://userguide.icu-project.org/ alive, with a link at the top of each page pointing to the corresponding page on GitHub. The old location is also now a redirect to a new Google Site, but we intend to sunset this site in a few months.

Please pardon our dust and adjust your bookmarks.

Best regards,
Markus Scherer for the ICU-TC
