Re: [ga-roots] Keywords: The Net's Future Naming Standard?

[Stefan Probst <stefan.probst@opticom.v-nam.net>]

This would mean, that the user doesn't see "זרו.com/index.html" in his 
browser line anymore, but ""bq--aerasefbvert.com/index.html". Bookmarks 
would look similar.

Cgi's which need absolute URLs will probably not work (unless they are 
coded already with the *ACE version - on the other side, this will anyway 
mostly be necessary).

Might work, but an "ugly" solution, because it makes in the end the 
"multilingual" domain to a "non-lingual, numeric" domain for the user.
