We don't need to reinvent the wheel in > this directorate. Marc, Agree completely. However, my interpretation of Asmus's suggestion and my variation on it is that the requirement could be satisfied by a pointer to PRECIS (and, presumably, a particular profile of PRECIS, which allows many options). In that sense, this is just like the "support UTF-8 and nothing else unless you have a clear reason and explanation" policy that all three of us are suggesting. "Use and conform to PRECIS and specify what profile is being used unless you have a good reason to do something different and, if you do have such a reason, you MUST describe and explain it" would be a perfectly good rule. That said, and noting that Section 5.1 of RFC 8264 (which is a clear statement of the "too many profiles or canonical forms are a bad idea" principle that Asmus and I have suggested in this discussion), I note that RFC 8265 requires NFC and RFC 8266 requires NFKC. So, if the "don't normalize, leave that for comparison time" is appropriate for some strings, especially those in Asmus's second category, than a PRECIS reference would presumably need an additional profile. best, john
