Hello Andy,

That's an interesting idea, but the RFC Editor and the Production Center 
would probably have to say whether they are willing to support this. I'd 
definitely be willing to help a bit.

> Just out of curiosity, did this RFC precede the AUTH48 process?

Probably not. What RFC 7997 is referring to is the use of non-ASCII. So 
this isn't about simple spelling errors that could and should have been 
caught in AUTH48, but about authors where the Production Center would 
have refused to use the fully correct name (e.g. Dürst in my case) and 
insisted on an alternative (Duerst in my case).

Regards,   Martin.
