And we got it wrong, breaking the site. It's our business as software developers to make life easy[1] for our users. Not to present them with a minefield of gotchas. If the ASF's own sysops fall straight into a site-breaking gotcha, we're demonstrating our own failure. I'm suggesting therefore that a modest simplification, as offered by utf-8, might be in order. You clearly disagree. That's fine, but you really don't need to make a 'religious war' (your words) of it. Do you have any *constructive* response to the suggestion that utf-8 offers a worthwhile simplification? [1] No I don't believe in 'dumbing down': software should be as simple as possible, but no simpler. Nor - crucially - more complex. -- Nick Kew Available for work, contract or permanent http://www.webthing.com/~nick/cv.html --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: docs-unsubscr...@httpd.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: docs-h...@httpd.apache.org
