In a related question on WML: From the spec it looks like if the document charset is not explicitly specified, then the charset is assumed to be UTF-8 or UTF-16. I have 2 questions in relation to what is being used now and expected by processing software: 1. Does this them imply that a BOM should be at the beginning of the transmission, even in UTF-8? 2. Does the assumption that untagged text data is in Unicode actually work? In other words, are folks actually tagging everything else?
