Good clarification. Rephrasing: UASG does not consider support for emojis as domain names to be part of our current scope or charter. We are driving adoption of standards, and emojis are outside the standards.

We are driving adoption of standards, and emojis are outside the standards.
It's more than that, surely. We want users to have a seamless experience - and that includes not being exposed to domain names that are inherently risky. UASG could do more to help address (and limit) the unavoidable risks involved. The article quoted at least gives a nod to some of the problems inherent in emoji. There are risks also in many "naive" implementation of IDNs. And these added risks are unnecessary - they are not caused by enabling useful IDNs, but by doing it in a way that needlessly increases the attack surface - for no credible gain in usability. A./

Folks, It might just be that I am in a bad mood tonight, but it seems to me that there is a substantial “social” difference on top of the “technical” difference related to being a standard or not. While UA of IDNs will allow the underserved communities of non-ASCI-script people to access the Internet on par with the ASCII-script population, there is no social benefit in allowing emojis - although some folks might indeed think that they can make a lot of money with fancy vanity domain names - but this is hardly an outcome towards which I am personally inclined to volunteer time and effort. But again, it might just be my bad mood, and somebody can convince me tomorrow of how great progress for the humanity would be the development a framework for facilitating emojis.

Yep, you would need LGRs, rules about colors, accessibility technologies, etc.
Except that you can't make such rules because they're not controlled by the sending side (i.e. they're not all actually properties of the code point as such), and because normalisation doesn't work. I think we've explored this rathole before, however, so I don't think it needs another full airing :) A -- Andrew Sullivan ajs@anvilwalrusden.com

It will be more fun to argue about this tonight at Krakenfest.
