<h2>Multibyte collation support</h2>
<p>Currently FreeBSD supports only single byte collation. Multibyte
collation support would be nice.</p>
<p><strong>Benefits</strong>:</p>
<ul>
<li>Proper national sorting in UTF-8 and other multibyte locales.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Requirements</strong>:</p>
<ul>
<li>Knowledge of C.</li>
<li>Familiarity with locale subsystem and relevant ISO standards.</li>
</ul>

documents in UTF-8 encoding.</p>
