We are now clearly at such a juncture, and the > revision process is already being initiated. Hi Cary, It is really nice to hear from you. I have an idea for the Guidelines. As Paul has indicated, the various communities around the world have different needs, and some have already started writing down the rules that they are following in their registries. The JET community comes to mind: http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc3743.txt Other communities have other needs. I've been told that some communities use a set of letters that are currently encoded in two different ranges of the Unicode space (e.g. Latin and Cyrillic). Today, my idea is that these communities can "occupy" their "own" part of the DNS space, for example a .tld or a .2ld.tld. They can publish the rules that they enforce in their registries, and then the browsers can either allow any character sequence in those labels or check them to see if the rules were indeed followed. Of course, it is much harder to come up with and enforce rules in a "global" TLD like .com. As a result, the browsers may simply blacklist .com in its entirety. Or maybe .com will eventually figure out some rules and actually enforce them in the 2LDs, so that the browsers don't have to check the 2LDs. Indeed, in a perfect world, .com would even enforce rules in 3LDs, 4LDs, etc, so that browsers would not have to check those either. We shall see what .com does. But in the meantime, how about my idea for the Guidelines? Erik
