(unknown charset) Re: tracking-ISSUE-126: DNT-extension syntax includes characters not safe to embed in JSON [Tracking Preference Expression (DNT)]

Hi Roy,

thanks for pointing this out.

Question: Is it easy to fix by contraining the characterset or
defining a transport encoding within JSON?

If yes, I propose that you just fix it ;-) Drop me a line and I'll
create a correponding ACTION.

Regards,
Matthias

However, if the field-value is going to be echoed back to the client, as in the current proposal for the tracking status resource, then we should reduce the characters allowed to a safe set that can be easily embedded in a JSON string.
