We discussed this in our [WG call](https://www.w3.org/2016/06/02-i18n-minutes.html#item07) today and I drew the action item to update this thread :-) I18N recommends that the "normalization" paragraph be removed unless/until specific requirements are developed. In addition, we don't believe that Unicode Normalization, either directly or indirectly through DOM String Comparison, should be applied. Whether whitespace or markup normalizations are applied depend on your WG's requirements, not on any specific I18N concern. We also suggest that a health warning about the need to Unicode Normalize on comparison (matching of the TextQuoteSelector to the source text) should be included, provided that you intend differently-encoded-but-Unicode-equivalent sequences to match (the Ivan/Ivan discussion above). If that is not your intention, then you might consider the counter health warning (that distinct sequences that represent the same "logical" character will not match each other) with a pointer to Charmod-Norm. -- GitHub Notification of comment by aphillips Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/web-annotation/issues/227#issuecomment-223351761 using your GitHub account
