 ## Building notes
-1) The 'locale' and 'regex' libraries are built using the ICU backend. ICU build scripts are taken from https://github.com/apotocki/icu4c-iosx and run using the 'pod' utility.
+1) The 'locale' and 'regex' libraries are built using the ICU backend. There are two ways to get it. The first (default) is when the ICU libraries are automatically built before Boost is built using the build script from https://github.com/apotocki/icu4c-iosx . The second is by specifying the ICU4C_RELEASE_LINK environment variable where prebuit binaries can be downloaded from.
 2) The 'test' library is built for iOS and visionOS with the BOOST_TEST_NO_MAIN flag.
 3) The 'test' library is built for watchOS and tvOS with the BOOST_TEST_NO_MAIN and BOOST_TEST_DISABLE_ALT_STACK flags.
