As we all know there appears to be no minimum length of an IDN, ie a single character is acceptable, and many many have been registered.
however I was somewhat bemused by the statement on centralnic's website: http://www.centralnic.com/register/idn
Rules for IDN domain names
IDN domains may only contain characters from a single script - you cannot mix them.
IDN domains must be between 3 and 64 characters long.
IDN domains may not contain characters are neither alphanumeric nor ideographic language characters, such as typographic and pictographic dingbats
IDN domains may not contain characters from the following scripts: Braille, Inherited, Linear B
CentralNic's policy is comply with ICANN's IDN guidelines wherever possible.
