Merlin proposed: > > Is it intended that space be considered an ASCII control character; if > > not, I'd suggest the text "\00-\1f inclusive". Merlin has suggested that the white space not be escaped when encoded in a DNAME, and provides some tweaks to effect that change. Gregor responded that those tweaks were the reasons he escaped it in the first place. Merlin argued that the tweaks aren't that much trouble, they make the encoded text more human readable, and conforms to earlier examples -- which I think were the basis of the earlier conformance tests? Consequently, I'd argue we should adopt the "\00-\1f inclusive" text unless I misunderstand the course of the argument or others want to argue against it.
