Ooops, I'm now in the wrong seat on this one. I'm not the one perceiving a
technical conflict, Terry Allen is. Read his first email message from
earlier today ("HTML/SGML/charsets"). I just perceive a lack of consensus
on something I thought we had agreed on.
I *think* the perceived technical conflict is:
What if you receive a document which has a BASESET specification of one
character set, and also:
text/html; charset=somethingelse?
I'm not really the person to spell out technical details on this particular
issue. I just want to know why Dan Connolly and Terry Allen, (both being
people who know more about SGML than I), don't agree on this issue.
