@frozeman you might want to check out ethereumjs/ethereumjs-icap#1 for discussing a new API

[axic]

@frozeman released a brand new version (0.2.0) which enforces the 0x prefix and expects fixed length hex addresses. That should be easier to integrate.

I am not sure if it makes sense to switch to your library, or keep what we have in web3.js now: https://github.com/ethereum/web3.js/blob/1.0/packages/web3-eth-iban/src/index.js

Sorry if this is a common question, but why are ICAP-related functions even bundled in Web3 in the first place? Surely an external library would suffice?
