Re: Example of dns (non) fun

Dan,

actually your urls could be:

  http://www.bq--aduwvya.fr/
  http://www.deja.fr/

a application may render the bq--aduwvya.fr as déjà.fr or it may not.
Finally it would be up to the URDP process or the courts as to *if* the
two domains are the same. We shouldn't worry what the URDP or the courts
may or may not do.

In the proposed regime, its not obvious what to do from a purely consumer
point of view. Verisigns view would be each is completely unique. ICANN's
dispute resolution would say there completely identifical and one has to go!
But ICANN's resolution makes this problem appear in the first place.

Whoops, its not pretty.
