I haven't looked over the documents in detail, but I did check and the following are still wrong. The problem is that 5.1-5.5 does NOT establish that the input string is a U-Label.<br><br>In particular, BIDI and CONTEXT are not assured. Thus the use of U-Label and A-Label is incorrect. (This was brought up earlier on this list, but I guessed you missed it.)<br>
<br><pre class="newpage"><span class="h3"><h3><a name="section-5.6">5.6</a>. Punycode Conversion</h3></span><br><br> The validated string, a U-label, is converted to an A-label using the<br> Punycode algorithm with the ACE prefix added.<br>
<br><span class="h3"><h3><a name="section-5.7">5.7</a>. DNS Name Resolution</h3></span><br><br> The A-label is looked up in the DNS, using normal DNS resolver<br> procedures.<br></pre><br clear="all">Mark<br>
