do arbitrary changes to them. Marking "com" and "net" as delegation-only is not harming anything. (At least until ICANN changes its mind.)

Hm. And how would it suppose to break IDN resolution? Client encodes the hostname, then asks the DNS about already encoded name. So the bind receives the request about, say, "xn--szkoagwnahandlowa-lyb21mca.pl". How would that fail with "delegation-only"? p. -- Beware of he who would deny you access to information, for in his heart he dreams himself your master. -- Commissioner Pravin Lal http://nerdquiz.sgh.waw.pl/ -- polska wersja quizu dla nerdów ;)
