My experience of RFCs is that they are ASCII and that makes it rather difficult to give Arabic examples. The last thing I encountered is https://tools.ietf.org/pdf/rfc7997.pdf which proposes usage of Unicode UTF-8 instead of ASCII What is the current state of play for using Unicode UTF8 in RFCs?

If so, how do we go about getting such underway? Write an Internet-Draft and upload it to the Internet-Drafts repository and get some review. My bet is that this will either have to be AD sponsored or Independent Submission, but maybe it can go through one of the area working groups. The first trick is to get the I-D written, though. There are a lot of tools for this, none of them very friendly. Many people like https://github.com/miekg/pandoc2rfc/ A -- Andrew Sullivan ajs@anvilwalrusden.com
