Regarding Hebrew: The proposals are inadequate for Hebrew domain names as follows:
Hebrew vowel signs etc. (points) should be stripped (mapped out) by nameprep. Unicodes 05B0 to 05B9, 05BB to 05BD, 05BF, 05C1, 05C2, 05C4. Explanation: These marks in Hebrew are optional, one may or may not use them, for example to clarify a possible ambiguity. They should be allowed but they should be ignored. Their presence or absence should not make two host names different. Note: This implies that FB2A to FB4e and FB1D should be mapped to their base letters in nameprep.
