It may not yet be supported very widely, but that's a question of time. Moving in this direction is the right thing to do, because after all, the U in URI stands (potentially among else) for uniform. In the meantime, the IRI spec allows conversion to xn--bcher-kva.example. Also, for the time being, I'd suggest using the later in a general context. (The former is very helpful internal to implementations, to say the least.) Regards, Martin. #-#-# Martin J. Du"rst, Assoc.
