Re: URI for Unicode collation algorithm

Hello Ashok,

To the best of my knowledge, there is currently no predefined
URI identifying the Unicode collation algorithm. There is of
course an URI for the spec, http://www.unicode.org/reports/tr10/
for the newest version, and http://www.unicode.org/reports/tr10/tr10-9.html
for the current version.

Ideally, such an URI would come from Chris Newman's work.
So for the moment, just using a placeholder should be fine.
You may have to make up (or nail down) an URI for the algorithm
at a later stage, if necessary.

Regards,    Martin.
