http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=1497 ------- Additional Comments From mike@saxonica.com 2005-06-14 20:36 ------- I think the original is more grammatical than the proposed replacement, though the whole paragraph could be a lot more readable: It is often desirable that a collation should treat two strings as equal if the two strings are identical after Unicode normalization. One strategy for achieving this (recommended by the [Character Model for the World Wide Web 1.0]) is to ensure that all strings are subjected to early Unicode normalization. Some collations may require this, and may fail at run-time if they encounter data that is not correctly normalized. However, it is not always feasible to achieve this. Another strategy is for the collation to implicitly normalize strings before comparison. Collations based on the Unicode collation algorithm use this approach.
