Right – and in the US, where staff don’t usually have familiarity with searching with diacritics, I would expect that “muller” would find “müller”.

So next week might be a good idea for this topic.

Hi all,

I’m not going to attend today, but if you get to the diacritics/umlaute today, it would be good to discuss what would be expected here:

In the concrete case "Müller" a search with the paraphrase "Mueller" does not lead to success.

Your assumption would be that a search for:

- mueller finds "mueller" and "müller".

- müller finds "müller" and "mueller"

- muller does not find "müller"

I’d also be happy to talk about it next week.

Thanks & have a good meeting.

Hello, all.

Sorry for the late notice.  The agenda for tomorrow will be:

1. Active/inactive users.  Erin got feedback from the RA SIG, and we should hear about it.

2. What is the canonical loader (or loading process) for the bulk import of users?  It was discussed a bit on Slack, but we should bring everyone up to speed here.

3. What can we expect when searching Users, especially when a name has a diacritic in it?

Hope to see everyone there.
