  Description     : internationalized usernames and passwords

If you want your application to accept unicode user names and
passwords, you must be careful in how you validate and compare
them. The PRECIS framework makes internationalized user names
and passwords safer for use by applications. PRECIS profiles
transform unicode strings into a canonical form, suitable for
comparison.

This module implements the PRECIS Framework as described in:

 - PRECIS Framework: Preparation, Enforcement, and Comparison of
   Internationalized Strings in Application Protocols (RFC 8264)
 - Preparation, Enforcement, and Comparison of Internationalized
   Strings Representing Usernames and Passwords (RFC 8265)
 - Preparation, Enforcement, and Comparison of Internationalized
   Strings Representing Nicknames (RFC 8266)

This package will be maintained within the Python modules team.
It is an optional dependency (Recommend) of Gajim >= 0.16.11.
