The i18n Issue - IESG’s Issue Part 4
4) Related problem: conversion of the ! Syntax:
intstring1.com!user@intstring2.com
=>
user@intstring1.com
Here “intstring1.com” needs to move from UTF-8 (stringprep rules) to ASCII (IDN rules)
Question 1: what transformation happens here?
Question 2: can we always do this, e.g., are all IDNs representable as usernames (stringprep)
Question 3: what to do if there’s an illegal char and you need to do a conversion?
