Re: [idn] Is The IDN WGroup Still Active? Fwd: [IDNList] Registrar

[liana.ydisg@juno.com]

I am thinking this FYI is important for the users and 
administrators to be aware of if the WG go with any 
laguage tagged scheme at all.  Since: 

It may lead to inconsistent exception conditions due to 
changes in language specific normalization procedure. 
 For example, a UCS code point A in language tag T is 
excluded in Version X, as there is no blocking for any 
UCS code points in place yet.  Due to upgrade Version X+1, 
T(A) has been newly included tagged code blocks, then
 an input contains A  fail in Version X, but will succeed
 in Version X+1.  Due to failure in X will be coded with a 
defaulted ACE as a legal name, then the same input 
will not be fail in X+1, an inconsistency will resulted. 

If the WG has consensus on NOT using language tag
mechanism, it is better to voice this and let 
VeriSign users go ahead.

I am upgrade idn-map draft  to address this problem
 too, I need to know the above too, so that I don't 
need work for this group any more. Thank you all  for
saving my time.
