Having a common vocabulary and understanding of terminology is extremely important. I look at this being a large part of the VIP work that the teams are doing.
It will reduce the confusion for when the follow-up work is performed by the community members who are working with the output from the current phase of the VIP work, where they are looking the actual policy and technical (+etc) issues.

I understand that one might thing that just "A-label" might be enough, but after long long discussions when IDNA-2008 was developed, we came to the conclusion to use exactly that terminology that is used. I think one of the things we (as the community) is doing better and better is to use the same terminology. Which is the basis for all difficult discussions like many of the ones in ICANN community.

I found the answer in RFC 5890, section 2.3.2.1. A "valid A-label" is the A-label form of a IDNA-valid label. Sorry for the noise. -Behnam

Thanks Jothan for sharing it. I couldn't understand the item 7, where it says "unless it is a valid A-label". What is a "valid" A-label? Was it meant to be "valid U-label"? I'm not sure if VIP list is the right place to discuss this document. Please let me know if it is not. -Behnam
