Here are my comments. Larry agrees with me. 1) Drop the charset parameter There have been a lot of debates about the charset parameter. In HTML 4.0, documents can specify their own charsets and the charsets of referenced document and stylesheet. In HTTP 1.1, the charset parameter in the MIME header is authoritative. We believe that the former approach is mainly for bug-for-bug compatibilities. The latter approach gurantees interoperability and thus should be encouraged in a new environment such as XML. Therefore, we believe that the pseudo attribute "charset" defined in this PR should be dropped. 2) Drop the type parameter We also propose that the type pseudo attribute should also be dropped, since the type of the referenced stylesheet is specified by the content-type in the MIME header.
