Mark Symons commented on FILEUPLOAD-280:
----------------------------------------
Do not worry about the "proposed" in "proposed standard". From
[wikipedia|https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_Standard#Proposed_Standard]
(quote because it's so clear in it's meaning, and with highlighting in red
added by me):
{quote}
A Proposed Standard specification is stable, has resolved known design choices,
has received significant community review, and appears to enjoy enough
community interest to be considered valuable. Usually, neither implementation
nor operational experience is required for the designation of a specification
as a Proposed Standard.
Proposed Standards are of such quality that implementations can be deployed in
the Internet. However, as with all technical specifications, Proposed Standards
may be revised if problems are found or better solutions are identified, when
experiences with deploying implementations of such technologies at scale is
gathered.
Many Proposed Standards are actually deployed on the Internet and used
extensively, as stable protocols. {color:red}Actual practice has been that full
progression through the sequence of standards levels is typically quite rare,
and most popular IETF protocols remain at Proposed Standard{color}

>From the [list of Official Internet Protocol
>Standards|https://www.rfc-editor.org/standards] you can see that there are
>less than 85 Internet Standards and that only 13 have been approved in the
>last 9 years.... but there are nearly 3000 Proposed Standards.

> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 1.3.2
> Reporter: Miroslav Holubec
>
> [RFC-7578|https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7578] which obsoletes RFC-2388
> (together with RFC-2047),
> [defines|https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7578#section-4.2] new encoding for
> filenames inside HTTP payload, so called percent encoding, known already from
> URI.
> Commons Fileupload should support it together with old
> [RFC-2047|https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2047].
