Forgive me also to advertise on this list for some support on my ACE37 proposal: You can find it at http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-chung-idn-ace37-00.txt here is a summary: - ACE37 is a combination of DUDE, AMC-W/V & LACE (the three primary ACE identified by the design team) - ACE37 utilizes simple code block reordering (without requiring mapping) to optimize diff so that there could be at least 21 Han ideographs within a 63 octet constraint (19 characters if 59 octets is used) - ACE37 uses a single pass, single mode system that is almost as simple as DUDE (a C implementation will be pubished soon to illustrate further that it is as simple as DUDE) - ACE37 uses all 37 characters allowed in the current DNS to optimize compression Edmon
