I've been working on ECMA-402 for the last 6 years on behalf of Mozilla. I'm excited to see it showcased on HN!
We have an amazing, inclusive and open community of engineers, linguists and standardization exports from all of the World from largest corporations to smallest non profits and maintainers of open source little libraries.
Our biggest challenge now is to make sure that anyone can use ECMA-402 - either with a well supported JS engine (V8, SpiderMonkey, JSShell etc.) or via library.
To achieve that we're working on Rust project called ICU4X which aims to be able to back ECMA-402 in web browsers, on servers, in client solutions and offer FFI to many programming languages including to JS over WASM.
