<DIV><FONT face=宋体 size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=宋体 size=2>now many of us explain the IDNA2008 as that
IDNAbis is completed in 2008.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=宋体 size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=宋体 size=2>Why not use a different understanding?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=宋体 size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=宋体 size=2>IDNA2008 means that we have created an
IETF IDNAbis WG and done the essential work in 2008. 2008 is a milestone
for IDNA.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=宋体 size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=宋体 size=2>So I prefer to using IDNA2008 as the historical

<DIV style="FONT: 9pt 宋体"><B>Subject:</B> consensus item - "IDNA2008"</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>Although we may not finalize all consensus items until early in
2009, I would like to ask for consensus to stick with the "IDNA2008"
nomenclature for two reasons:
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>1. the bulk of the work has been done in that year</DIV>
<DIV>2. the term clearly distinguishes IDNA2008 from IDNA2003</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>I recognize that suggestions have been made to rename the work "IDNA" or
"IDNA2009" but it seems to me that we have a body of material (draft I-Ds and
list commentary) that references "IDNA2008" and that it serves clarity to
retain the binding.</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>May I assume concurrence?</DIV>
