I think it'd be useful to upgrade the trunk to use the beta Unicode 6.0 data, so any problem with it can be detected as soon as possible, in accordance with the recommendations from Unicode (at http://www.unicode.org/versions/beta.html): "We strongly encourage implementers to review the summary description, download the beta 6.0.0 Unicode Character Database files, and test their programs with the new data, well before the end of the beta period." It also says: "No products or implementations should be released based on the beta UCD data files -- use only the final, approved Version 6.0.0 data files, expected on September 30, 2010." but I don't think we're planning to do a 24.1 release before September 30, so it should be no problem.
