Hi, the spec says in chapter 8 [1]: "...SHOULD use a case-sensitive octet-by-octet comparison of the two label names." I think this must be "character-by-character comparison". The term "octet" isn't meaningful here because we have XML based marshalling. Furthermore, I'm not convinced that [2]: "The value of a label header is the name of a label, encoded using UTF-8. For example, the label "release-2.0" is identified by the following header:" is compatible with HTTP and existing servlet engines. Has anybody *tested* this? Maybe it would be better to specify URL-encoded UTF-8 instead.
