Comment:
 
The section mentions the use of the XML declaration for declaring
in-document the encoding of XML documents, but makes no mention of the
standard in-document declaration of encoding for HTML documents or XHTML
served as text/html, which uses the Content-Type meta element. This seems
a strange omission. Please add text describing this.


Working Group Resolution:
We have added a link to the I18N tutorial on specifying the encoding and
have added the specific case you mention in the related technique:

(note that the document only focuses on XHTML, not on HTML)
