Subject: Re: [LC Review]
All -- Rob has submitted this comment to the public list of the WebCGM WG: http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-webcgm/2008Sep/0001.html It would be good for the TC to discuss it also, since we have some WebCGM-ers who aren't in the WG. Rob ... do you have a specific proposal to kick off discussion in the TC? (Double the octet limits? Change the limits to characters instead of octets?) Some solutions are easier than others, and different solutions have more or less impact on existing software. (You are right, that users of UTF-16 get half as many characters as users of IsoLatin1. And then there is UTF-8, which could range from same-as-Latin1, to *lots* fewer characters, depending on the language. Since WebCGMs are overwhelmingly English-language, in practice it is same-as-Latin1.) Regards, -Lofton.
