>Many Internet application protocols include string-based lookup,
>searching, or sorting operations.  However, the problem space for
>searching and sorting international strings is large, not fully
>explored, and is outside the area of expertise for the Internet
>Engineering Task Force (IETF).  Rather than attempt to solve such a
>large problem, this specification creates an abstraction framework so
>that application protocols can precisely identify a comparison
>function, and the repertoire of comparison functions can be extended
>in the future.  [STANDARDS TRACK]
>
>This is now a Proposed Standard Protocol.

>STANDARDS TRACK: This document specifies an Internet standards track
