I'm sorry for not noticing that XEP-0029 was superseded. The draft of the XMPP Address Format is indeed the best solution. However, it is still a draft and mentions in the introduction that stringprep could be superseded. "Following the lead of the IDNA community, other technology communities that use stringprep have begun discussions about migrating away from stringprep toward more "modern" approaches. The XMPP community is participating in those discussions (mostly within the PRECIS Working Group) in order to find a replacement for the Nodeprep and Resourceprep profiles of stringprep defined in RFC 3920." [1] If there is no objection I'ld create a ticket to support the final RFC. Best, Marc [1] http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-xmpp-address-09#section-1.1
