Hey, I was wondering whether it would make sense to define http://wiki.whatwg.org/wiki/StringEncoding as part of http://encoding.spec.whatwg.org/ Tying them together makes sense to me anyway and is similar to what we do with URL, HTML, etc. As for the open issue, I think it would make sense if the encoding's name was returned. Label is just some case-insensitive keyword to get there. I also still think it's kinda yucky that this API has this gigantic hack around what the rest of the platform does with respect to the byte order mark. It seems really weird to not expose the same encode/decode that HTML/XML/CSS/etc. use. -- http://annevankesteren.nl/
