Hi team,

We are thinking adopting MF2.0, but found in the doc MF2.0 is a tech preview implementation on C++. Wondering what would be the timeline for official implementation?

Thanks!

Hi Cherry --

I'm the implementor of MF2.0 in ICU4C. The ICU technical committee plans to review all the APIs with the goal of promoting the MF2.0 APIs, but I don't know what the timeline is for that. Markus Scherer, who I've added to CCs, might have a better idea.

Cheers,

Tim

Hi Tim,

Thanks for the reply! Not sure why my messages got deleted. Re-post it here.
It doesn't have to be concrete and determined timeline. Based on the current progress, do you have any estimation with say 80% of confidence? Even this would help us a lot!

Btw, do you have any recommended way that we can prototype using the tech preview, and launch using MF1.0 with easy switch to 2.0 whenever that's official? Appreciated!

Cheers,

Cherry

Hi Tim,

Thanks for the reply! It doesn't have to be concrete and determined timeline. With the current progress, do you have any estimation timeline with maybe 80% of confidence? Even this would help us a lot!

Also, do you have any recommended way for us to prototype using tech preview, and launch using MF1.0 with easy switch when MF2.0 is official? Appreciated!
