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.
