Paul, all, a few comments on the document follow: Section 2: "To allow [...], IDNA uses an 'ACE local part'". You mean "IMAA uses", don't you? Section 2: "ACE infix". Maybe adding a few words there on its role in IMAA? Section 4: "If a local part is represented using a character set other than Unicode or US-ASCII, it will first need to be transcoded to Unicode.". I don't understand this requirement on the character set used to the input and I think it is not relevant here. Nevermind if I use UTF-8, or UTF-16 or Latin-1. If my local encoding is, for instance, Latin-9 and I have an implementation of ToASCII running in my system that deals with my local encoding, the operation will succeed. Relevant is that my system correctly interprets the character encoding when reading from an input stream (socket, file). Section 4.1, step 5.d: Could we add some wording on the magic of 59? At the first reading, I didn't know what was the point of this test. Best regards, Marcos Sanz
