Abstract:
Internationalized Domain Names for Applications (IDNA) provides a
method to map a subset of names written in Unicode into the DNS.
Because of Unicode decisions, appearance, language and writing system
conventions, and historical reasons, it often has been asserted that
there is more than one way to write what competent readers and
writers think of as the same host name; the different ways of writing
are often called "variants". This document surveys the approaches
that top level domains have taken to the registration and
provisioning of domain names that have variants. This document is
not a product of the IETF, does not propose any method to make
variants work "correctly", and is not an introduction to
internationalization or IDNA.
