Dear all,
I went again through all combinations in the sheet, and could only see that
there is a diacritic below because I’m intentionally looking at it. Specially
those with dot, line and macron below.
As I said in the previous call, a normal user would not notice a
difference, so my personal opinion would be to consider at least code points
having those 3 diacritics as variants.
This decision would of course would limit the use of IDNs.
Open for discussion.

Dear colleagues,
If you can't tell which diacritic is used, that would logically be a case
for a variant relationship between all potential options, but not the unmodified
basic letter shape itself.

Hi Bill,

Dear colleagues,
I would like to show why I think the
various diacritics below (not just
dot and macron) ought to be accounted
variants as well. And I thought
I'd do it as an email, because
that's likely to be the way (along with
links on web pages) that most
people will get links.
By way of example, consider one of the
original TLDs: .mil
_www.teștexampļe1.mil
<http://www.xn--exampe-0cb.mil/>_
_www.testexampḽe2.mil
_
www.testexample3.miḽ
<http://www.testexample3.miḽ>
_www.tesțexample4.miļ
<http://www.example.xn--mi-gqa/>_
Can you honestly say that you
can tell which cases of .mil have
diacritcs under the
L?
And if you think you can, did you notice which
cases of
"testexample" had them? And which diacritic? Because I
sure
can't.
Yes, I can honestly say that I can see
something under the l of example
for the first two cases and something
under the l of mil in the last two
cases (plus some other strange things
under s in the first and t in the
last case.
Which diacritic
however, is something I could not tell.
Furthermore in the first and
the last case the actual link didn't match
shown address, but that's a
complete different problem, out of our scope.
Best
regards,
Michael
