Dear WG participants, Peter and I posted https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-melnikov-precis-saslprepbis/ which is an initial attempt to update RFC 4013 to use the Precis framework. When compared to RFC 4013, the -00 draft does the following changes: o A single SASLprep algorithm was replaced by two separate algorithms: one for user names and another for passwords. o The new preparation algorithms use PRECIS instead of a Stringprep profile. The algorithms are now Unicode version independent. The basic idea for -00 was to try to preserve backward compatibility with RFC 4013 (for example there is a pre-processing step to map characters from the Unicode's "N" category to US-ASCII space) and identify cases where use of Precis framework as currently written (e.g. NameClass) will break that. So please have a look at the draft and let Peter and I know what you think. Best Regards, Alexey P.S. I am hoping that the draft can be used as the base of one of Precis deliverable.
