Root Zone Label Generation Rules Version 5 (RZ-LGR-5) Submission - Integration Panel
10 May 2022

Submission Summary:

In partial response to the comment by Igor Mkrtumyan of the Armenian GP the IP would like to clarify that U+0587 could not be not included in the repertoire for the Armenian script because it is DISALLOWED in IDNA2008 (see RFC 5892) and therefore not allowed in IDNs. A note to that effect will be placed into the Element LGR to resolve any ambiguities.

Having reviewed LGR 5, I'm amazed at the amount of work that has gone into Root Zone Label Generation rules.
