Well, I can't give you any technical reason; I can only point to actual German usage. There's no such thing as a "capital estset" in the German alphabet; whenever an estset is converted to uppercase, it becomes "SS". When converted to Unicode "Titlecase", it becomes "Ss", although until this thread I had not run across any words that actually required that treatment. :) -Mark
