Nothing wrong with due diligence before allocation, or even a little reticence. But I'm also concerned about people putting these ranges in their code and doing something special with them. Like "this is experimental, so we will ignore these always" or similarly silly things. You don't need to have a reserved space to say that a particular codepoint is temporary. _______________________________________________ TLS mailing list TLS@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/tls
