A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts
directories.
This draft is a work item of the Internationalized Domain Name Working
Group of the IETF.

	Title		: StepCode- A  User Access Oriented  IDN Encoding
	Author(s)	: Liana Ye
	Filename	: draft-ietf-idn-step-00.txt
	Pages		: 11
	Date		: 29-May-01
	
Development of Internationalized Domain Name (IDN) has been a heated
discussion over what to send down to the wire as international hostnames.
 
Shall we send UTF-8 in addition to current DNS or scatch DNS completely
and starts 
over some times down the line.   This proposal hope to answer the
question 
and make UTF-8 an unnecessary addition to hostnames.
