The IESG has received a request from the Email Address Internationalization WG (eai) to consider the following document: - 'Mailing Lists and non-ASCII Addresses' <draft-ietf-eai-mailinglistbis-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 2012-08-29. 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 considerations for mailing lists with the introduction of non-ASCII UTF-8 email addresses. It outlines some possible scenarios for handling lists with mixtures of non-ASCII and traditional addresses, but does not specify protocol changes or offer implementation or deployment advice. *NOTE TO REVIEWERS: Missing or odd-looking references between sections are due to bugs in xml2rfc. The XML is OK, and the HTML output looks reasonable.* The file can be obtained via http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-eai-mailinglistbis/ IESG discussion can be tracked via http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-eai-mailinglistbis/ballot/ No IPR declarations have been submitted directly on this I-D.
