All, This isn't strictly about DNS in the RIPE region, and is perhaps 4000 years out of date, but I don't really know where to ask. I noticed that VeriSign supports IDN registration using Egyption hieroglyphs: https://www.verisign.com/assets/idn/idn-egyptian-hieroglyphs.html However, their own web site doesn't seem to allow me to register a name using that character set, calling it "temporarily unavailable". I tried a few registrars but I get things like "𓎟𓀀 contains invalid characters" or the like, some say things like "ӎ߰Ӏ.com is not available" (clearly their character handling needs some tweaking, since they're munging my requested domain name). Neither DuckDuckGo nor Google seemed to help me find a list of which registrars support which languages or character sets. Does anyone have any tips, or do I need to start my own registrar? I'm also happy to use another TLD, but the Egyptian ccTLD seems more concerned with Arabic than hieroglyphs.
