Hi. Forwarding to the relevant IETF-related I18N for those who don't follow the IETF list. Charmod has been the key W3C document on non-ASCII string handling for the web. It has been referenced many times in our discussions even by those who disagreed with some of its provisions. This new Charmod-Norm draft has been in progress for a long time but represents a new (and, IMO, much-improved) specification for string normalization and comparison. I'd encourage anyone with interest or the belief that they have competence in this area to review it. Comments as specified below and _not_, please, to any of the list copied on this note. thanks, john ---------- Forwarded Message ---------- Date: Monday, May 14, 2018 17:57 +0000 From: "Phillips, Addison" <addison@lab126.com> To: ietf@ietf.org Subject: [W3C I18N] call for comments on Charmod-Norm Dear IETF participants, The W3C Internationalization (I18N) Working Group recently published a "last call for review" of the "Character Model for the World Wide Web: String Matching<https://www.w3.org/TR/charmod-norm>" Note [1]. Because our group felt it was of general interest to IETF, I was tasked [4] with posting this announcement on this list. We are looking for comments by Tuesday 29 May. This document builds on the document Character Model for the World Wide Web 1.0: Fundamentals<https://www.w3.org/TR/charmod/> [2] and provides authors of specifications, software developers, and content developers with a common reference on string identity matching on the World Wide Web, in order to increase interoperability. [It is similar, in that regard, to the PRECIS RFCs in IETF] All comments are welcome. Please raise them as github issues<https://github.com/w3c/charmod-norm/issues> [3]. To make it easier to track comments, please raise separate issues for each comment and point to the section you are commenting on using a URL. Thanks, Addison Phillips Principal SDE, I18N Architect (Amazon) Chair (W3C I18N WG) Internationalization is not a feature. It is an architecture.
