Not at all. Assuming that you meant "Punycode" for "IDNA", that encoding is used for full labels, not characters. The result of this is that, if the master file format is ASCII, names would be encoded Punycode. It is important to *not* require IDNA2003 or IDNA2008, which have different prohibitions on different characters. A second result is that anything other than domain names that might have non-ASCII characters needs to be encoded in Base64. > (comments > can of course be anything that does not interfere with reading of the > file, like NULL. Proposal: comments not be allowed in the canonical format. This will allow more likely interoperability. --Paul Hoffman
