Just so I understand what you are suggesting, do you mean: (1) "don't use { Arabic, Hebrew, etc. } at all" (2) "don't use { Arabic, Hebrew, etc. } if digits appear anywhere (in any label) in the domain name" or (3) "don't use { Arabic, Hebrew, etc. } unless the FQDN is entirely in that (or some other nominally RtoL) script _and_ do not allow digits anywhere in the domain name" (4) and (5) Either (2) or (3) but with "anywhere in" replaced by "at the beginning or end of". --john
