(I will correct Erik's "xn--s" proposed notation into "xs--" not to create havoc in punycode) One of the reason why I disagreed with IDNA is it creates a possibly conflicting left-to-right hierarchy while the DNS hierarchy is right-to-left. Erik's proposition makes a lot of sense. But it means that a label at the same time: - belongs to a DNS zone - belongs to a zone of encoding (ascii, punycode, his punysecure, new versions, tables, other transcoding, etc. ) - may belong to a zone of encoding different from the zone of encoding of other labels (ex.: "xn--abc.xs-def.tld"). This does not simplify understanding, management, security. Why not to just use DNS zones? I have not yet understood why it was opposed. IMHO the future of ML.ML names are in the form "name2.name.xx--chicom.com" where "xx-nn.com" will print as ".com" in Chinese and name, name2 etc. will all have to use codes from the Chinese Table of ".com". jfc At 20:15 27/02/2005, Erik van der Poel wrote: >Erik van der Poel wrote: >>Another bifurcation that could be considered somewhat analogous is that >>of http vs https.
