Putting the character encoding in as a MIME parameter is something I've seen others do for Feodra datastreams as well. Honestly, I don't think we originally anticipated that the MIME type field for datastreams would be used with parameters, but in retrospect, this seems to be a fine place to persist the character encoding. - Chris ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net email is sponsored by Make an app they can't live without Enter the BlackBerry Developer Challenge http://p.sf.net/sfu/RIM-dev2dev _______________________________________________ Fedora-commons-developers mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/fedora-commons-developers
