Fwd: ICU 66preview available

Dear Unicoders,

If you use ICU, then testing with ICU 66*preview*
<http://site.icu-project.org/download/66> is a good way of trying out Unicode
13 *beta* <http://blog.unicode.org/2019/11/unicode-130-beta-review.html>.

(Just please don't use these snapshots in production releases.)

Best regards,
markus
