Based on comments recieved about actual use, I propose that in the "Notes to RFC Editor and IANA" change the list, leaving: US-ASCII ISO-8859-1 ISO-8859-2 ISO-8859-3 ISO-8859-4 ISO-8859-5 ISO-8859-6 ISO-8859-7 ISO-8859-8 ISO-8859-9 ISO-2022-JP ISO-2022-JP-2 ISO-2022-KR but add as preferred MIME names: SHIFT_JIS EUC-KR GB2312 BIG5 KOI8-R and add EUC-JP as the preferred MIME name for EXTENDED_UNIX_CODE_PACKED_FORMAT_FOR_JAPANESE UCS-4 for ISO-10646 and add the following as preferred names (instead of the longer names that were proposed there): UTF-8 for UNICODE-1-1-UTF-8 UTF-7 for UNICODE-1-1-UTF-7 UCS-2 for UNICODE-1-1 If there are any objections to these changes, please contact me directly and I'll create a new list. The algorithm is to delete any recommendations that are controversial. - Larry
