Again, apologies if this is not the right list. OpenJDK does not currently contain support for encoding/decoding ISO-8859-16. A JRuby user recently reported that they needed this encoding. So, I implemented it.
Here's a link to the charset/decoder/encoder in JRuby's repository: https://github.com/jruby/jruby/blob/master/core/src/main/java/org/jruby/util/encoding/ISO_8859_16.java I tried to follow the general form of the other ISO-8859 charsets, but there's probably more reuse possible (I believe they use sun.nio.cs classes I can't access). Happy to contribute this. Unsure of the process. - Charlie
