Is the "Goofy" in "GoofyCode" supposed to be longhand for "q"
(as in "Goofymail") or for "djb" (as in "Goofydns")? If
not please do try to use the correct term for whatever it is
you're unsucessfully attempting to refer. Otherwise your
rantings are likely to be dismissed as nothing more than
ranting.
I am avoiding entering this discussion in general. However, as a
non-combatant reading it, it is perfectly obvious to me that what Dan
means by "GoofyCode" is "one of the many non-UTF-8 encodings that has
been proposed", such as Punycode or whatever.
