string-normalization

Type(s): Issue

Subject Identifiers (1)

Internal Occurrences (3)

  • Description
    • The text as written implies that processors must use a Unicode normalization form, without requiring any particular one. The Web Character Model requires Normalization Form C, as does the current XML 1.1 Working Draft. Requiring normalization improves string comparison, but imposes a possibly unwelcome burden on implementors.
  • Opinion
    • Normalization Form C should be adopted in conformance with W3C rules for XML. - Scope: Martin Bryan
  • Resolution
    • Current text is fine, but must require normalization form C, because of the resolution of op-sorting.
