RE: [Ecrit] Does IDN work for the DNS proposal
no, it didnt. Strictly street names.
See the Excel sheet at http://mah.priv.at/112/vienna-streetnames-idn.xls to
get the idea.

Does this data include Apartment Numbers/Suite numbers as this is also
critical in validation of location? High rises and apartment complexes for
a given street address must be included when determining maximum
characters required.

Subject: [Ecrit] Does IDN work for the DNS proposal
Michael Haberler did a quick pass of finding 8000 Vienna street names,
turning them into IDN, and figuring out if they exceed the 64 character
per-label limit of DNS. He didn't find any, but came real close (61).
It would be very helpful if we did this test with as many areas as
possible, especially in the usual-long-name-suspect's cases.
As I observed, if the incidence is low enough, a simple, consistently used
abbreviation would work. Even truncation may work well enough.
