The recent debate [1] [2] over IDNA2003 vs IDNA2008 encoding motivated me
to take a stab at fixing the problem. Here is a draft ballot based on Peter
Bowen's Ballot 202:

My thanks to Corey Bonnell and Roland Shoemaker for their input.

Can we add this to tomorrow''s VWG meeting agenda?

The big open question is if we should forbid IDNA2003 encoding in
certificates.

Thanks,

Wayne
