[idn] I-D ACTION:draft-ietf-idn-sace-00.txt
A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the Internationalized Domain Name Working Group of the IETF.
Title : Simple ASCII Compatible Encoding (SACE)
Author(s) : D. Oscarsson
Filename : draft-ietf-idn-sace-00.txt
Pages : 5
Date : 28-Aug-00
This document describes a way to encode non-ASCII characters in host
names in a way that is completely compatible with the current ASCII
only host names that are used in DNS. It can be used both with DNS to
support software only handling ASCII host names and as a way to
downgrade from 8-bit text to ASCII in protocols.

Internet-Drafts can also be obtained by e-mail.
Send a message to:
mailserv@ietf.org.
In the body type:
"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-ietf-idn-sace-00.txt".
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.
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.
