Not according to the character types it announces, and not according to
some people's (Mati from IBM, for one) experience. I have positive
confirmation that the character types they are publishing are 2.0
complient (even though the standard clearly suggests that 1.0 is the
standard they are implementing).
Whether we want to allow an algorythm more correct than the one Windows
is using is an open question at this stage. Like I said before, I am
leaning torwards implementing that as an option.
