Could we get a show of hands for working implementations of that draft?

- I have one in NSS (used in Mozilla clients and Sun servers).
- Michael D'Errico has one. I've successfully i18y tested with it.
- Microsoft has one.        I've done very limited I18y testing with it.
- OpenSSL has one, IINM.    (Haven't done a test with it yet)
- RSA claims to have one, IINM.  (Haven't tried it yet, Either.)

Are there others?

I agree.
