It's an informational RfC, so maybe you should try to contact the authors. You probably know <http://dict.org> to find the "dict community" if there is a "dict community", I've no idea. If the dict authors and / or community like your ideas to update this rather old protocol, you could publish an I-D (Internet draft), after reading Paul's "IETF Tao" and some related memos. One thing you probably want to update is chapter 5 with the dict: URL scheme, at the moment it's still based on RfC 1738, use RfC 3986. For that part of the discussion you could use the <uri.w3.org> mailing list. > - Defining character sets (esp, support for unicode) IIRC dict has UTF-8 as default. If your updates would break existing implementations you should really discuss it with the authors.
