I think making no mention for NFC in IRIs is better, because otherwise you may get into conflicts with the IRI spec if it is tweaked. (I don't expect any big changes regarding NFC in IRIs, but tweaks might happen.) On the question of NFC for RDF overall, as you personally know, we have backed up a bit from the position that everybody MUST check and reject. Check and reject for NFC is now just a SHOULD. What is definitely still true, in all cases, is that 'applications' (such as RDF) MUST NOT normalize stuff themselves. Hope this helps, Martin.
