I'm about to embark on trying to write code to apply NACO normalization to
strings (not for field-to-field comparisons, but for correctly sorting

My end goal is a Solr filter, so I'm most interested
Wow! Thanks, Ralph! This is great!

Very interesting, Ralph. Are you / OCLC offering that code under any particular
license(s)?
(The Evergreen code, for what it's worth, has a project-level license stating
that Evergreen code is offered under the GPL v2 with the or later clause).

Apache 2.
To cover my butt, this code was originally released as part of our
SiteSearch product which we made Open Source. This is just the latest
incarnation, but just as open.
Stick this at the top of that code, if you expect to reuse it.
Thanks for asking!
