Abstract:
Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions (MIME) (RFC-2045, RFC-2046,
RFC-2047, RFC-2231) and various other Internet protocols are capable
of using many different charsets. This in turn means that the
ability to label different charsets is essential.
This draft updates the IANA Charset Registration Procedures
originally defined in [RFC2978]. Specifically, this document
completely revises the registration procedures and the charset
registries. The charset registry is now divided into three parts
with separate registration procedures for each.
Note: The charset registration procedure exists solely to associate a
specific name or names with a given charset and to give an indication
of whether or not a given charset can be used in MIME text objects.
In particular, the general applicability and appropriateness of a
given registered charset to a particular application is a protocol
issue, not a registration issue, and is not dealt with by this
registration procedure.
