Dear IUsers,
Barry Leiba, WG/APPSAWG Chair has sent the following most important 
mail for us:

>"Paul Hoffman and John Klensin have undertaken to update RFC 3536, 
>which specified terminology for use in internationalization-related 
>documents and discussions.  The editors, appsawg chairs, and 
>Applications Area directors think the document needs broad review, 
>and propose to make it an appsawg document.
>You can find the document here:
>http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-hoffman-rfc3536bis/
>The editors will soon submit an updated version, and await a 
>decision on accepting the document into appsawg before doing 
>that.  We ask that anyone with a stake in internationalization 
>review the current version and state any objections to making this 
>an appsawg document by 29 April.
>You may, or course, also send comments on the document at this point 
>to the editors and/or the apps-discuss list.  Remember that there 
>are changes queued, so you might bring up points that they're 
>already planning to change/correct.
>The reply-to on this message is set to the apps-discuss list 
><apps-discuss@ietf.org>.  Please put all responses and discussion there.

This terminology is obviously going to be the mutual understanding 
bridge between the IETF and the IUTF communities. 
http://iucg.org/wiki/Wiki_RFC_3536bis is the traditional wiki working 
transcript (unfinished as yet) of the proposed draft.

This is in line with my own I_D on orthotypography: 
http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-iucg-idna2008-orthotypography-00

I suggest thet our target should be :

1. to make sure RFC 3536bis by APPSAWG is in line with our own 
understanding of the terms in our own working contexts (IDNA2008, 
ML-DNS, IUI, EST).
2. to build our own Internet extension section to document in a 
similar manner the emergent IUse terminology. This section should not 
document any concept than the way we read and use the  existing 
"Internal Internet" technology (i.e. no bit change).
3. to continue building in contnuity our own dictionnary of the new 
IUI and Intersem (semiotic/semantic Intercomprehension network) stratum.

Best.
jfc

NB: due to personal constraints that should now progressively reduce 
I was not able to sustain my post-IDNA2008 endeavour as I planned it. 
Some terminology used in this mail is not therefore as common and 
supported by operational prototypes as our little group hoped. Thank 
you to read the used acronyms/terms as follows:

- IDNA2008: as documented by RFC 5890 to 5895
- ML-DNS: multilayer DNS (of which layer 1 is the Internal Internet 
DNS, layer 2 is IDNA2008).
- IUI: Intelligent Use Interface (Internet Use Interface from an 
Internet perspective). i.e. a generalization of principle introduced 
by Paul Hoffman and Pete Resnick in RFC 5895 and a stable optional 
response to problems discussed by the IAB in RFC 6055
- IUse: an emergent community interested in an open general 
Intelligent Use of the world digital ecosystem (whatever the 
multitechnological convergence).
- EST: Extended System Theory, a glogalization of the General System 
Theory which includes networking and interfaces and is necessary to 
better read the IETF RFCs in an IUse perspective.
- IUTF: Intelligent Use Task Force, TF under formation further to the 
responses to the appeals to IESG and IAB following the successfull, 
but not documented yet as such, introduction of the principle of 
subsidiarity (IDNA2008) as the third internet architectural principle 
(RFC 1958: principle of permanent change, RFC 3439: principle of 
simplicity). I note that subsidiairity should come with suppleance (I 
did not found so far an English equivalent for the core to support 
peripheral difficulties) and precaution.
- Dictionnary (http://iucg.org/wiki/Dictionnary): this IUCG project 
to integrate digital ecosystem convergence and ALFA (Free Acrchitecture) words.

(top post) 

Jefsey,

Thanks.  The notice was already forward to a few other lists,
which I hope I have trimmed.   Any discussion of the
appropriateness of doing this should continue on the
apps-discuss list, as requested by Barry, and not cross-posted.
I would prefer that any substantive comments be deferred until
after AppsAWG makes a decision about discussion venue and then
sent to their list (if they decide to take the document on).  In
the interim, substantive or editorial comments may be sent to
Paul and myself at draft-hoffman-rfc3536bis@tools.ietf.org if
needed.  Neither he nor I have time to track multiple lists for
comments so comments to random lists, or long distribution lists
are likely to get lost -- please, everyone, don't do a multiple
posting and then complain that your comments were lost.

Substantive comment for planning purposes: Whether it ends up
being posted as draft-ietf-appsawg-rfc3536bis-00 or as
draft-hoffman-rfc3536bis-02 (with the version after that posted
as draft-ietf-appsawg-rfc3536-00), the main substantive change
between that version and the current draft-hoffman-rfc3536bis-01
will be the addition of an extended description of the term
"variant" (used in domain name contexts).  Wisely or not, the
use of that term in various context has been expanded
significantly beyond the definition in RFC 3743.   Those whose
work involves that term, or notions of "equivalence" in domain
names, will want to look at the description carefully.  Each new
version of course also includes a selection of editorial
improvements and less significant fixes.

     john

p.s. I note that the "the traditional wiki working transcript"
referred to in your note contains several significant errors and
that we are unlikely to be able to have a useful discussion or
incorporate changes based on that version.   I strongly suggest
that people use
http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-hoffman-rfc3536bis/ as the
relevant discussion/ reading version instead.

This draft is worded in a way I, and I suppose other IUCG Members, 
can accept. However, the need to publish it underlines that Unicode 
is not the most appropriate Internet oriented solution to support 
IDNs, the multilingual internet, and further on the Intersem 
(semiotic/semantic Internet). For example, I underlines once more 
that IDNA2008 using Unicode does not support the French (and many 
other languages) orthotypography.

However I support JFC's position on the long range, I disagree that IUCG
should support the Draft until the points well made by Simon Josefsson are
addressed. Even if we can introduce a better network suited approach than
Unicode we will still have to interface the Unicode codepoints for a very
long time.

However I support JFC&#39;s position on the long range, I disagree that IUC=
G should support the Draft until the points well made by Simon Josefsson ar=

 Unicode we will still have to interface the Unicode codepoints for a very =
long time.<br>

The above document effectively forbids some strings that were permitted<br>

This worries me: "implicit in the decision on the past". In RFC everything
MUST be explicit. (my interest lies in non registered sub-domain names used
to deliver an information to the other end).

I am sorry because I am not really expert in PVALID issues (changes, etc.),
but I understood that PVALID once, PVALID for ever. I realize with this
Draft that this means at character level not at codepoint level. Or am I
wrong?

What about the applications using hard-coded code points names, or crypted
domain names or subnames based upon an algorythm among PVALID  code points
(I understood that ".su" permitted that)..

Another point is that this Draft is precisely to show that IDNA2008 is
stable. Simon and Andrew show that this may not be the case, even when IETF
says it is? How could the IDNS be stable if it uses a non-stable element
(Unicode) ?

I think you're wrong in two ways.

First, it's true that the idea in IDNA2008 was that once something
would be PVALID, it would be PVALID forever.  But IDNA2008 depends on
Unicode and its properties.  If Unicode changes properties such that
something moves from PVALID to something else, then the desired state
is not achieved.

Now, one could just make a rule, "once PVALID then always PVALID."
But this is tantamount to sticking IDNA2008 to the Unicode version
that was around at the time of IDNA2008 publication.  We wanted to be
Unicode-version independent, and so that strategy doesn't meet the
goal.  

Second, I don't think "at character level not at codepoint level" is
right.  We're dealing in code points.

It is.  That's what the issue is in this case: there's a new Unicode
version, and a code point's properties changed from one version to
another, such that the derived category in IDNA2008 changes from
PVALID to something else.  Have you read the draft?  This is called
out quite explicitly in section 1.

> Yes, and their properties change for the same character ?

Please don't bring characters into this.  We are talking about code
points, and we don't need to muddy the waters.
