I downloaded Opera 12 pre-alpha and IDNA2008 doesn't seem to be in here
either... correct?
Another question around bundling and blocking. Is the recommendation
here that all domains containing an "ss" should be considered for
bundling and blocking? So for all new domain name registrations that
would use U+00DF ( ß ) LATIN SMALL LETTER SHARP S, the registry should
protect existing registrants where the new domain name would map to the
existing domain name under IDNA2003 rules. Or at least give them a
heads up like DENIC did with their short sunrise period.
The same would apply to cases where the registration of other deviation
characters would map to existing customer domain names under IDNA2003.
So e.g. in Table 1's examples from UTS46, the owner of http://βόλοσ.com
should be protected from someone trying to register http://βόλος.com.
At least during the transitional period.
I understand that registries don't have t bundle/block if they don't
want to, but protecting their customers is advised.

Opera - error, doesn't resolve
We have recently implemented support for IDNA 2008 internally, but it
was not finished in time for the just recently released Opera 11.50. Our
latest greatest internal test build resolves that URL just fine (not
that there is much interesting to see).
