W3C Invites Implementations of Encoding
10 November 2016
<https://www.w3.org/blog/news/archives/5968>
The Internationalization Working Group has updated the Candidate Recommendation of "Encoding." For new protocols and formats, as well as existing formats deployed in new contexts, this specification requires the utf-8 encoding. It also defines a limited set of other legacy encodings so that user agents can convert to and from utf-8 in a standardized and therefore interoperable way.
