From article:
"The coming introduction of non-Latin characters represents the biggest
technical change to the Internet since it was created four decades ago,"
said ICANN chairman Peter Dengate Thrush. "Right now Internet address
endings are limited to Latin characters – A to Z. But the Fast Track
Process is the first step in bringing the 100,000 characters of the
languages of the world online for domain names."
Do we know what that means for Spacewalk? Will handle it. Can somebody
test it?
According to my information Fedora 12 should be able to handle such
domains. Older Fedoras and RHELs will probably not support it.
Interesting - are you able to create a wiki to start capturing thoughts
on this?
- Is there a Fedora page tracking this project for them?
- server Hostname uses this, thus what you type in URL
- will tomcat, apache etc in F12 support them?
- will our java, perl and python stacks be nice to the request or
filter out the chars and end up with a broken url
- kickstarts use urls
- Proxy server hostname - do things work
- client tools communicating to Satellite - rhnpush, config etc
- rhel/fedora client tools - yum-rhn-plugin, rhn_check etc
