Abstract


   This document describes changes between Unicode 6.3.0 and Unicode
   11.0.0 in the context of IDNA2008.  It further suggests for the IETF
   a path forward regarding ensuring IDNA2008 follows the evolution of
   the Unicode Standard.

   In a few cases changes have been made in the Unicode Standard related
   to the algorithm IDNA2008 specifies.  IDNA2008 do give the ability to
   add exceptions for backward compatibility to the algorithm but the
   conclusions provided in this document suggests no such changes.

   Thus this document requests that IANA update the tables to Unicode
   11.

   In addition, all registries should continue the practice of
   calculating a repertoire using conservatism and inclusion principles.
