--------------------------------------

On the 2017-08-03 telcon (https://www.oasis-open.org/apps/org/workgroup/camp/download.php/61348/20170803Minutes.txt) the TC agreed to the following:

original text "Based on the binary comparison of the Unicode characters in the String."
proposed resolution: replace text with "Based on unicode collation algorithm [ref]"
ref is: http://www.unicode.org/reports/tr10/tr10-36.html

> 7.3.3.1.2 String reads:
> *****
> Based on the binary comparison of the Unicode characters in the String.
> *****
> This is not a meaningful definition of sort order for Unicode characters, or in the words of Unicode® Technical Standard #10 UNICODE COLLATION ALGORITHM, http://unicode.org/reports/tr10/, 
> *****
> The position of characters in the Unicode code charts does not specify their sort order.
> *****
> Collation (sorting) is a complex issue and covered by Unicode® Technical Standard #10 UNICODE COLLATION ALGORITHM in great detail. 
> Ad hoc attempts to define Unicode collation lead to bad ends.
