Title : PRECIS Framework: Preparation and Comparison of Internationalized Strings in Application Protocols

Application protocols using Unicode code points in protocol strings
need to prepare such strings in order to perform comparison
operations (e.g., for purposes of authentication or authorization).
This document defines a framework enabling application protocols to
handle various classes of strings in a way that depends on the
properties of Unicode code points and that is agile with respect to
versions of Unicode; as a result, this framework provides a more
sustainable approach to the handling of internationalized strings
than the previous framework, known as Stringprep (RFC 3454). A
specification that reuses this framework can either directly use the
base string classes or subclass the base string classes as needed.
This framework takes an approach similar to the revised
internationalized domain names in applications (IDNA) technology (RFC
5890, RFC 5891, RFC 5892, RFC 5893, RFC 5894) and thus adheres to the
high-level design goals described in RFC 4690, albeit for application
technologies other than the Domain Name System (DNS). This document
obsoletes RFC 3454.
