The Unicode Code Points and Internationalized Domain Names for Applications
RFC 5892, “The Unicode Code Points and Internationalized Domain Names for Applications”, is a Proposed Standard document published in August 2010 by P. Faltstrom. It has since been updated by RFC 8753. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.
Abstract
This document specifies rules for deciding whether a code point, considered in isolation or in context, is a candidate for inclusion in an Internationalized Domain Name (IDN).
It is part of the specification of Internationalizing Domain Names in Applications 2008 (IDNA2008). [STANDARDS-TRACK]
What “Proposed Standard” means
An entry-level standards-track specification: stable, peer-reviewed and a solid basis for implementation, though it may still evolve before becoming an Internet Standard.
