Chinese Domain Name Consortium (CDNC) Final Comments
----------------------------------------------------------

The following comments are made by CDNC:

1.Currently, IETF IESG has begun Last Call on the set of
core documents IDNA+NAMEPREP+PUNYCODE of IDN WG, but the
architecture of IDN defined in the above three documents
does not solve the traditional and simplified Chinese
character variant problem: it¡¯s a half-baked solution
for Chinese users. That will cause serious delegation
problem in the application of Chinese Domain Name.

2.IETF IDN WG does not solve Chinese Domain Name technical
problems. Under the current condition, if IETF approves
these IDN drafts without publishing any complementary
documents simultaneously, registrars will open Chinese
Domain Name registration without considering the requirements
of Chinese Domain Name and Chinese Domain Name will fall
into confusion. This will damage Chinese Internet community
seriously.

3.What¡¯s more, it stands a good chance that software
vendors will not deploy or modify client software to support
IDN too, because the current so-called IDN solution is a
defective solution, which will be widely against end users,
administrators and Chinese Internet communities, and bring
them into much trouble.
