Emoji Domains

[andre]

Hi All,

You may be interested in a blog article I am working on. In my article, amongst other things, I investigate Emoji Domains.

See https://schappo.blogspot.co.uk/2017/10/computer-science-internationalization.html

The stuff between 〖 and 〗is mostly me thinking out loud. The idea is for readers to see my progress and my thinking as I experiment and problem solve.

Among the set of required knowledge, skills and personality traits you list, you missed another one, the one which precedes'em all and is most indispensable!
- to be a member of IdnForums!

Good one :) You are absolutely right. I have learned a lot by being a member of IDN Forums

I think some apps/browsers apply IDNABIS instead of IDNA2008, in order to properly “support” a larger spectrum of strings. If you investigate the diff between the 2, you might find some additional codepoints that are handled differently (i.e disallowed in 2008 for security/stability reasons). I am not sure, but I think I remember Unicode having two sets of Kana, one full width, the other half width. Great way to spoof

IDNBIS was the name used whilst a revised version of IDNA2003 was being developed. The finished spec was named IDNA2008.

Actually, I did not know what BIS meant so I looked it up on wikipedia and found this definition: "Bis is a Latin prefix or suffix designating the second instance of a thing"

So now it makes perfect sense. IDNABIS is a 2nd version of IDNA2003. The finalised IDNABIS was renamed IDNA2008.

Halfwidth Katakana are in Unicode at U+FF66➜FF9D

This is the Glyph symbol for gold.com, oops-nothing here.

I cannot post it here but I can on Namepros, in a thread or signature.

Ironic isn't it!

Ah! Yes, very good point :) thank you. I had forgotten all about UTS46. I will check it out with https://unicode.org/cldr/utility/idna.jsp
