Change topic again? How typical :-) Lets get back: There is two topic here. 1. registry vs Nameprep I have already answered you the Nameprep is okay. You have not make a case registry mapping is going to be a problem. 2. "ambiguity" of Nameprep/IDNA You have only stated your opinion it is ambigous. You have absolute right to do so. But you have not stated any technical reasons why. -James Seng > Nameprep/stringprep's NFKS/Casefolding introduced the ambiguity into the DNS > and IDNA's ACE concept tunneled "that different beasts" through the trusted or > unsuspected ASCII namespace for which existing dns/application protocols > have no filtering mechanism, while some of them have builtin filtering machanisums for > non-ASCII 8-bit strings now, like BIND or SENDMAIL. > > If this IDNA were introduced in early 1980 or 1990, at that time, many protocols > authors would have wanted to insert some sphiscatred filtering mechanisms for > ambiguous IDNs in their drafts. > > Soobok Lee > > > > > If the registry choose to do additional mapping which will cause > > incompatible with the Nameprep, then two things should happen: > > > > a) The registry should revise its policy to be compatible with Nameprep > > (It is possible.
