Re:  German umlaut sort
That would explain why my Ruby sort ended up like this: 

Hochschulbau
Hochschullehrer
Homosexualitdt
Humanistische Bildung
Hvrfunksender
Ideengeschichte
Industriekultur

I haven't run this in other languages, but I
wonder what they do??

Jean-Pierre,

what Heiko meant: There is not a single "true" German sort
order. Thats why (as I remember) books like dictionaries or phonebooks explain
their sorting inside.

What you get is also dependent on the software and tool
you use, as XSLT is not defining any language sort order.
