+<para>This parameter lets you select which method to use for sorting and grouping
+ index entries in an index.
+Indexes in Latin-based languages that have accented characters typically
+sort together accented words and unaccented words.
+Thus <quote>Á</quote> (U+00C1 LATIN CAPITAL LETTER A WITH ACUTE) would sort together
+with <quote>A</quote> (U+0041 LATIN CAPITAL LETTER A), so both would appear in the <quote>A</quote>
+section of the index.
+Languages using other alphabets (such as Russian, which is written in the Cyrillic alphabet)
+and languages using ideographic chararacters (such as Japanese)
+require grouping specific to the languages and alphabets.
+</para>
+
+<para>The default indexing method is limited.
+It can group accented characters in Latin-based languages only.
+It cannot handle non-Latin alphabets or ideographic languages.
+The other indexing methods require extensions of one type or
+another, and do not work with
+all XSLT processors, which is why they are not used by default.</para>
+
+<para>The three choices for indexing method are:</para>
+<variablelist>
+<varlistentry>
+<term><literal>basic</literal></term>
+<listitem>
+<para>
+(default) Sort and groups words based only on the Latin alphabet.
+Words with accented Latin letters will group and sort with
+their respective primary letter, but
+words in non-Latin alphabets will be
+put in the <quote>Symbols</quote> section of the index.
+</para>
+</listitem>
+</varlistentry>
+<varlistentry>
+<term><literal>kosek</literal></term>
+<listitem>
+<para>
+This method sorts and groups words based on letter groups configured in
+the DocBook locale file for the given language.
+See, for example, the French locale file <filename>common/fr.xml</filename>.
+This method requires that the XSLT processor
+supports the EXSLT extensions (most do).
+It also requires support for using
+user-defined functions in xsl:key (xsltproc does not).
+</para>
+<para>This method is suitable for any language for which you can
+list all the individual characters that should appear
+in each letter group in an index.
+It is probably not practical to use it for ideographic languages
+such as Chinese that have hundreds or thousands of characters.
+</para>
+
+<para>To use the kosek method, you must:</para>
+
+<orderedlist>
+<listitem>
+<para>Use a processor that supports its extensions, such as
+Saxon 6 or Xalan (xsltproc and Saxon 8 do not).
+</para>
+</listitem>
+<listitem>
+<para>Set the index.method parameter's value to <quote>kosek</quote>.
+</para>
+</listitem>

+<para>Import the appropriate index extensions stylesheet module
+<filename>fo/autoidx-kosek.xsl</filename> or
+<filename>html/autoidx-kosek.xsl</filename> into your
+customization.

+<term><literal>kimber</literal></term>
+<listitem>
+<para>
+This method uses extensions to the Saxon processor to implement
+sophisticated indexing processes. It uses its own
+configuration file, which can include information for any number of
+languages. Each language's configuration can group
+words using one of two processes. In the
+enumerated process similar to that used in the kosek method,
+you indicate the groupings character-by-character.
+In the between-key process, you specify the
+break-points in the sort order that should start a new group.
+The latter configuration is useful for ideographic languages
+such as Chinese, Japanese, and Korean.
+You can also define your own collation algorithms and how you
+want mixed Latin-alphabet words sorted.</para>
