Phillips, Addison scripsit: > The main thrust of the I18N WG's current consensus is that identifiers > must be compared as if normalized in one of the Unicode canonical > normalization forms (i.e. NFC or NFD, not NFKC or NFKD). I don't understand what "as if normalized" means. Does that mean that an identifier comparison routine can assume its inputs are normalized, or that it must normalize them (non-destructively) before comparing? The implementation implications couldn't be more different. > In my opinion, RDF literals fit the definition of "identifiers". I can't imagine why you think so. RDF literals are strings (except when they are typed as numbers, dates, etc.) -- John Cowan cowan@ccil.org http://ccil.org/~cowan No man is an island, entire of itself; every man is a piece of the continent, a part of the main. If a clod be washed away by the sea, Europe is the less, as well as if a promontory were, as well as if a manor of thy friends or of thine own were: any man's death diminishes me, because I am involved in mankind, and therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls; it tolls for thee. --John Donne
