Discussed in the 2021-nov-01 Unicode Tools meeting.

Going forward, use "dev" folders (e.g., unicodetools/data/ucd/dev) for data files for the next Unicode version, rather than "15.0.0-Update" etc. Only once copy from Unicode 14 folders to "dev". Make all changes in "dev", and when Unicode 15 is released, then copy "dev" to "15.0.0" and similar, and continue developing on "dev" for the then-next Unicode version.

  • The latest data is then always in "dev". This should simplify some scripts and tooling a bit. Data reviewers would always look at the same file paths.
  • It will allow us to have branches for new scripts & characters targeting the "dev" data files, even if they miss a release; we might initially not use this capability.

We would still have a version number for the next version, for printing in data files. We might append suffixes like α or β.

When we first do this, we will need to change the code to look in "dev" first unless the version is an "old" one.

Notify the properties & algorithms group when done / resolve the action in the agenda there (2021-nov-08).

Starting with Unicode 15, we should use a folder name of .../ucd/15.0.0 instead of .../ucd/15.0.0-Update. (issue #157)

Closing this issue now that we have "dev" folders with the latest data, and the tools know to look there.
