Title : Equivalence and Canonicalization of Internationalized Resource Identifiers (IRIs)
Author(s) : Larry Masinter

Filename : draft-ietf-iri-comparison-01.txt
Pages : 14

Internationalized Resource Identifiers (IRIs) are unicode strings
used to identify resources on the Internet. Applications that use
IRIs often define a means of comparing two IRIs to determine when two
IRIs are equivalent for the purpose of that application. Some
applications also define a method for 'canonicalizing' or
'normalizing' an IRI -- translating one IRI into another which is
equivalent under the comparison method used.
This document gives guidelines and best practices for defining and
using IRI comparison, equivalence, normalization and canonicalization
methods.
