Most operators of zones should probably not permit registration of U-labels using the entire range. This is especially true of zones that accept registrations across organizational boundaries, such as top-level domains and, most importantly, the root. It is unfortunately not possible to generate algorithms to determine whether permitting a code point presents a low risk. This memo presents a set of principles that can be used to guide the decision of whether a Unicode code point may be wisely included in the repertoire of permissible code points in a U-label in a zone.", "pub_date": "April 2013", "keywords": [], "obsoletes": [], "obsoleted_by": [], "updates": [], "updated_by": [], "see_also": [], "doi": "10.17487/RFC6912", "errata_url": null }
