RE: [idn] last call reminder - Hebrew

["Jonathan Rosenne" <rosenne@qsm.co.il>]

Regarding Hebrew:

The proposals are inadequate for Hebrew domain names as follows:

Hebrew vowel signs etc. (points) should be stripped (mapped out) by
nameprep. Unicodes 05B0 to 05B9, 05BB to 05BD, 05BF, 05C1, 05C2, 05C4.

Explanation: These marks in Hebrew are optional, one may or may not use
them, for example to clarify a possible ambiguity. They should be
allowed but they should be ignored. Their presence or absence should not
make two host names different.

Note: This implies that FB2A to FB4e and FB1D should be mapped to their
base letters in nameprep.
