I18N-ISSUE-57: UTF-16 BOM is required [Polyglot] http://www.w3.org/International/track/issues/57 Raised by: Richard Ishida On product: Polyglot 3. Character Encoding http://www.w3.org/TR/2010/WD-html-polyglot-20100624/#character-encoding WG Approved: Yes "When polyglot markup uses UTF-16, it should include the BOM indicating UTF-16LE or UTF-16BE." The RFC use of the word 'should' is incorrect. The XML spec requires the BOM for UTF-16 documents. http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-xml/#charencoding Please add comments to bugzilla: http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=10830 IMPORTANT: This issue was moved from our old review tracking system to the new tracker system.
