I haven't seen any messages about this on python-dev. Did I miss
something ?

The switch from Unicode 3.0 is a big one since 3.2 introduces
non-BMP character points for the first time.

I also don't think that it is a good idea to ship the Unicode
3.2 database while the code behaves as defined in Unicode 3.0.

And last not least, I'd like to be asked before you make such
changes.

Thanks,
