The IESG has received a request from the Email Address
Internationalization WG (eai) to consider the following document:
- 'Mailing Lists and non-ASCII Addresses'
<draft-ietf-eai-mailinglistbis-05.txt> as Informational RFC
The IESG plans to make a decision in the next few weeks, and solicits
final comments on this action. Please send substantive comments to the
ietf@ietf.org mailing lists by 2012-08-29. Exceptionally, comments may be
sent to iesg@ietf.org instead. In either case, please retain the
beginning of the Subject line to allow automated sorting.
Abstract
This document describes considerations for mailing lists with the
introduction of non-ASCII UTF-8 email addresses. It outlines some
possible scenarios for handling lists with mixtures of non-ASCII and
traditional addresses, but does not specify protocol changes or offer
implementation or deployment advice.
*NOTE TO REVIEWERS: Missing or odd-looking references between
sections are due to bugs in xml2rfc. The XML is OK, and the HTML
output looks reasonable.*
