Re: [idn] UTF-8 / RACE



Is this your defination for Fast Nameprep?

If that is the case, are you suggesting we change the keyboard interface
to do "Nameprep" so there is no 'bad' dot? Please explain further how
you proposed to interact with keyboard interface...

Incidently for those who cares, on a Chinese/Japanese IME, a dot can
either be U+3002 or U+002E depending if it is full/half width and in
Korean IME, a dot can either be U+FF9E or U+002E.
