             Summary: Definre ordering of tokens
                 Key: MNGSITE-441
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNGSITE-441
             Project: Maven Project Web Site
          Issue Type: New Feature
            Reporter: Elliotte Rusty Harold


On [https://maven.apache.org/pom.html#Version_Order_Specification] we use the 
terms " {{lexicographical order}}" and "alphabetical order". Neither is 
defined, and they need to be.

 

For example does "PPP" sort before, after, or the same as "ppp"? I don't know.

 

Lexicogrpahic order also has more than one reasonable definition: 
[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lexicographic_order]

 

Perhaps we can simply rewrite the version order section to not use these terms 
as long as we're clear about what does happen.
