There are many requirements of developing internationalized and 
human-readable Internet identifiers/names now, thereby there are many 
systems based on DNS technology to meet such requirements. John C. 
Klensin has proposed a three-layer search-based access model for the DNS 
[DNSSEARCH]; this paper is only to explain some related problems 
mentioned in John C. Klensin's proposal. Especially it focuses on 
Traditional and Simplified Chinese problems and some other special 
Chinese requirements. 

The ultimate goal for any kinds of search-based access system is to help 
users to access network resources in more natural ways, which have 
different meaning for different user groups. On the premise of respecting Chinese user's language convention, it is very important for a valuable and human-friendly system to deal with traditional and simplified Chinese equivalence problems.

NOTE:	The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
	MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility.  To use this
	feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
	command.  To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
	a MIME-compliant mail reader.  Different MIME-compliant mail readers
	exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
	"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
	up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
	how to manipulate these messages.
