Subject: Defining longest match
A little while ago, Paul raised the point [1] "Now that we are doing normalization, I'm not sure "longest" is well-defined. In any case, I think we have to define it explicitly. Are we counting normalized or unnormalized characters..." I don't think this has been clarified in the spec. For convenience, it would be helpful if the longest match is based on the normalized value of the system identifier/URI reference as this implies that the normalization can occur as the internal catalog data model is created rather than having to wait until after the elements are sorted.
