Re: [idn] If I used IDNA or UTF-8 at my site

Dan,

going directly to 8-bit IDNs has always been a non-starter for many applications.
no matter what this group says, applications protocol standards (or implementations)
are not going to universally embrace UTF-8 as soon as IDNs are approved.

the only real question is, will there be a single ASCII format for IDNs, or will
each application develop its own?

trying to force applications to use UTF-8 serving no purpose other than to delay 
deployment of IDNs.
