I didn't see anything regarding Virtual hosting and Name-based Host
resolution. This proposal indeed has its effects on the HTTP/1.1 protocol
How is this being handled? and by who ? The HTTP/1.1 RFC is very critical.


Can you sum up what is needed from the community?
I can see work needed on
- Updating/Writing several RFCs
- Updating/Patching DNS servers
- Updating current OS APIs
- Updating/Patching current browsers

What else is needed ? And How is this effort co-ordinated ?
Is there an official main entity handling multi-lingual DNS ?
