# So this is not only a IANA issue. Probably it is not a good idea # to cast it "in stone" in HTTP 1.1, but if we can come up with # a reasonable set on this list, and can make it publicly available # somewhere (W3? the babel site?), it might help a lot. Actually, an informational RFC that included a full list of charset tags in use in the Internet today and an explication of the issues (e.g., such as: # In addition, for ISO-8859-7 and -8, there is the problem of # bidirectionality. Given as such, these labels imply visual ordering, # which may be the best thing for line-oriented mail systems. # However, for HTML, a variant "charset" parameter (don't know # its value) has to be used, because HTML does line layout on # its own and has to get logical ordering and BIDI markup as input. would be the most useful way to publish this information.
