color:black'>There's been talk of the transition time and lots of mention that
IE6 doesn't support IDNA.&nbsp; It is probably worth considering that any new
IDNA2008 behavior (eszett or otherwise) likely won't happen until IE8 (and at
the rate the WG is moving, maybe IE10 :))&nbsp; As noted with the IE6 installed
base, it is difficult to move the installed base to a &quot;new&quot; version
(or even a patched version), so there could&nbsp;still be IDNA2003 browers a
decade from now.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
