There is a better solution. I've seen already IPv6 enabled badges !

We used it in one of the IPv6 Forum conferences ... last June in San Diego.

 I think that enhanced character sets is a perfect topic for
having the  IETF eat its own dogfood.  Just dealing with the
details of the name  tags might well prove instructive to us,
nevermind the basic politeness  it offers to attendees.

If we are really going to eat our own dogfood, we should also
(or exclusively) print punycode on the badges and then everyone
can carry a ToUnicode converter on his or her laptop or PDA :-(
