Putting ICU to Work at UTW 2025

Unicode’s 2025 edition of the Unicode Technology Workshop went well in November. Bigger, better, and we added tutorials to UTW for the first time (like we used to have with the Unicode Conference). Organizing was a smoother ride, although not without some hitches, most notable was Mark Davis having to miss out at the last minute. Everything was a team effort. Including the tutorial for ICU that I did, with Markus’ help, by picking up the virtual baton from Steven L and Craig and Shane:

I’m hoping to have time to make this even better for UTW 2026, and hey, that’ll be in Nancy, France this year. Hope to see you there!

note: you might or might not be able to tell that I’m wearing a Hooli shirt. One of the attendees noticed and had a laugh together with me about it. I said that Sergey wore the same shirt when he and Larry announced the Alphabet structure during the weekly internal town hall event in 2015, so if it’s good enough for him, then it’s good enough for me, too.
