Hello,
as a new release is about to show up the question about this
"numerical sorting" rises again. As far as I can tell nothing happend
in that camp:
We have no specification about how its supposed to work, no consens
upon such a specification and therefore also no verification if the
implementation matches the specification. Furthermore, while we like
to direct our users to the manual we are not able to correctly
describe this feature due to this.
From my point of view this "numerical sorting" should get disable in
3.3 again, following the same reasons as for 3.2
Comments? Who disagrees?

We have the specifications of the original algorithm (
http://sourcefrog.net/projects/natsort/ ). And that's exactly what the
code in SVN works like currently.
What's wrong with the description in the manual? Can we improve it?
Best regards.
