> This document describes a framework for preparing Unicode text strings
> in order to increase the likelihood that string input and string
> comparison work in ways that make sense for typical users throughout the
> world. The stringprep protocol is useful for protocol identifier values,
> company and personal names, internationalized domain names, and other
> text strings.
>
> This document does not specify how protocols should prepare text
> strings. Protocols must create profiles of stringprep in order to fully
> specify the processing options.
