ACE is what you get by applying ToASCII >(which has several steps including Nameprep and Punycode). ACE is the end result and Nameprep and Punycode, while different, are contributory. Okay, so outside of me, only techies will ever hear of the details and I'll keep those secret. > > Puny -- meaning of inferior size, strength, or significance; weak; >> sickly; ill > >ace: a serve that an opponent fails to touch; a hole in one; a pilot who >has brought down five enemy aircraft; one who excels at something > >Feel better? :) It's not my feelings that matter. If it don't brother you and the rest of the idn, then there's no problem. I was just suggesting considerations that may reside outside of the idn group. Please excuse my business experience, from my perspective -- perception matters. If you don't want to capitalize on that, or don't think it's an issue, then that's fine. It was only an observation and subsequent suggestion from someone outside your circle. >AMC tedd -- http://sperling.com
