We are pleased to announce the release of the 4.0.0 version of
Unicode Technical Standard #10: The Unicode Collation Algorithm
(UCA), which specifies a default sorting order and comparison
mechanism for all Unicode characters.

Major changes in this release include:
- The version of the UCA is now being synchronized with versions
  of the Unicode Standard, so that the repertoire of characters
  will be the same.
- An extensive new introduction has been added. It discusses
  important concepts that were formerly in Section 5.17 of Unicode
  3.0, but has been completely reworked for clarity and coverage.
- The Scope section has been recast and is now at the end of
  the introduction.
- The location of data files has been changed to
  http://www.unicode.org/Public/UCA/
