- -------- Original Message -------- Subject: [kitten] spaces in SASL user names Date: Tue, 10 Apr 2012 15:48:21 -0600 From: Peter Saint-Andre <[email protected]> To: [email protected] <[email protected]> - -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 At the PRECIS WG session in Paris, we had quite a discussion about spaces in user names. Alexey maintained that this must have been included in SASLprep (RFC 4013) for a good reason, but the reason wasn't clear to folks in the meeting. So I have a few questions: 1. Do SASL user names really need to include spaces? 2. If SASL user names do *not* need to include spaces, would it be fine to re-use the PRECIS NameClass for simple user names in SASL? 3. If SASL user names *do* need to include spaces, would it be fine to define simple user names in SASL as a space-separated list of NameClass entities? Option #3 seems preferable to (a) specifying that the PRECIS NameClass needs to include space (to which there was a lot of resistance during the PRECIS WG session), (b) enabling folks to superclass PRECIS string classes (to which there was also a lot of resistance), or (c) severely subclassing the PRECIS FreeClass to be something like NameClass+SP.
