           Summary: Edit for the 'Encoding false statement' thread

          Hardware: PC
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal

Please change:

"Historically encodings and their specifications (if any) were kept track of by
the IANA Character Sets registry. This specification renders that registry
obsolete."

to:

"Encodings and their specifications (if any) are also being kept track of by
the IANA Character Sets registry. For the purposes of specifications using this
specification, that registry is no longer relevant."

The first part of the second sentence (up to the comma) was suggested by Anne
during an i18n telecon. The text for the second part is recommended to avoid
the controversial word 'obsolete'. The edit to the first sentence was proposed
by Martin Dürst.
