Re: libidn2 extension for php

hi, Let me clarify our points too. The full and current IDN specification is implemented already in ICU, which is used by intl's IDN functions. See http://site.icu-project.org/ for more in depth details. About your extension, as we won't prevent you to include it (there is no policy to prevent duplicated features), we can't accept extension against GPL library, like libidn2. Have you tried the intl function with your needs or apps? If you miss something, we can surely add it to the existing features, be in ICU or in intl.
