Oops, sorry wrong example.
I said that the upercase first ordering was A B C a b c
which is clearly wrong it is
A a B b C c
so...
The issue being what is meant by "uppercase first" in the spec.
I think that the only possible reading of the spec is that it specifies
an ordering on letters:
A a B b C c
which you then extend to words by lexicographic ordering :
Acc
abb
Bcc
baa
It appears though, that xslt systems have implemented the ordering more
common in dictionaries where ordering is first done on a case
insensitive way and then upper-case first only used to order words that
are identical apart from case:
abb
Acc
baa
Bcc
