Call for comments: Charmod-Norm and String-Search [I18N-ACTION-550]

Dear www-international,

The I18N WG has been working on the Character Model series of documents for many (many) years. Way back in 2005 we published the "Fundamentals" part [1]. Since then, the working group has been laboring on what was formerly called the "Normalization" part, which has been renamed as "String Matching". This document lives at:

    http://w3c.github.io/charmod-norm/


The I18N WG is approaching the end of this document's development and we hope to advance it to "Working Group Note" status in 2016. We are therefore seeking comments on the contents and contributions to the remaining gaps in the text. Instructions on filing issues in our github issues list are in the "status of this document" section of the editor's copy linked above.

As part of making this document ready, the Working Group also split off work on natural language text searching into a new document that is *not* a part of the Character Model series of documents. This new document lives here:

    https://w3c.github.io/string-search/ 

We welcome comments and contributions on this document also. 
Thanks for your help!

Best regards (for I18N),

Addison

Internationalization is not a feature.
It is an architecture.
