Subject: Re: [wsrp-markup] [wsrp][markup] URI encoding.
I don't think we need to require entities write content in UTF8. This reference pertains to URI encoding not content encoding. I think we need at a minimum a mechanism where the consumer communicates to the producer the encoding(s) that are valid for the given request. We can also discuss allowing consumers the ability to transform encodings to the desired client encoding. I would guess we won't want to require this later behavior -- rather consumers can provide it as an option (and let producers know they do so). For consumers that don't do this they will merely reject any content returned in an unacceptable encoding. -Mike- Chris Braun wrote: > I think it makes sense to reference this appendix for URL rewriting.
