The IESG has received a request from an individual submitter to consider the following document: - 'IDNA2008 and Unicode 11.0.0' <draft-faltstrom-unicode11-05.txt> as Informational RFC The IESG plans to make a decision in the next few weeks, and solicits final comments on this action. Please send substantive comments to the ietf@ietf.org mailing lists by 2018-12-31. Exceptionally, comments may be sent to iesg@ietf.org instead. In either case, please retain the beginning of the Subject line to allow automated sorting. Abstract This document describes changes between Unicode 6.3.0 and Unicode 11.0.0 in the context of IDNA2008. It further suggests for the IETF a path forward regarding ensuring IDNA2008 follows the evolution of the Unicode Standard. In a few cases changes have been made in the Unicode Standard related to the algorithm IDNA2008 specifies. IDNA2008 do give the ability to add exceptions for backward compatibility to the algorithm but the conclusions provided in this document suggests no such changes. Thus this document requests that IANA update the tables to Unicode 11. In addition, all registries should continue the practice of calculating a repertoire using conservatism and inclusion principles. The file can be obtained via https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-faltstrom-unicode11/ IESG discussion can be tracked via https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-faltstrom-unicode11/ballot/ No IPR declarations have been submitted directly on this I-D.
