Dear IANA, This mail is more than half a year old. Harald has approved the registration of UTF-32, UTF-32BE, and UTF-32LE. However, I have not found them in your list at http://www.iana.org/assignments/character-sets. Can you please update that list at your earliest convenience? Many thanks in advance! Regards, Martin.
