Julian- The specification is at http://search.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-ips-iscsi-string-prep-00.txt It would be better to reference the specification rather than attempt to add the individual characters to iSCSI; the point of the separate specification is to leverage the same work that the IDN folks are doing. -- Mark Julian Satran wrote: > > Please send me a list of the characters to add or a specification for them.
