C067: Satisfied
C068: Satisfied
C069: Satisfied
C070: Satisfied
C071:
Not satisfied; see

rfc2396bis-03.html#comparison-string

The point is that the phrase 'bit-for-bit' is misleading.  It's  
code-point-by-code-point; how these are encoded into bits is a red  
herring.

C072: Semi-satisfied.  Does the charmod contain a discussion of the  
subtle-but-nonzero differences between 10646 and Unicode?   I note that  
this is touched on in the response to C128, and the point that the  
Unicode spec is well-written, useful, available on-line or in an  
excellent book is also worth making.  Clearly this meta-reference stuff  
is material to charmod's readers.

C073: Satisfied
C074: Pending not-yet-made edit, but it sounds like we're probably OK
C079: Really a special case of C074, but satisfied.

I think that C071 and 072 might be worth a couple of minutes of the  
TAG's time. -Tim
