I find ICU quite good. But you cannot use it as-is: you have to derive your own subset (e.g. your own JAR) with just the things you need: get rid of calendars, collations, rich text and so on. For the Java API, they tend to be too String-oriented: people may find it appropriate to provide alternative versions of some key methods which work on StringBuffers. On the subject of XML 1.1, --and this may be out of date now-- it is interesting that Xerces put out an almost useless implementation of XML 1.1: you had to select it by program code, rather than reading the XML header.
