Hmmm... Maybe it would be better to say ISO-646US rather than ASCII. There is a lot of impreciseness about the very low value characters (less than 0x20 space) in the ASCII "specifications." The same can be said about the higher end.

I see both "US-ASCII" and "ASCII" are used in: http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-hixie-thewebsocketprotocol-54

If they mean the same thing, one should be used consistently.

In the document, US-ASCII seems to mean encoding while ASCII mean charset. Is this common? (I guess US-ASCII is commonly considered as an alias for ASCII. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ASCII#Aliases )

I've changed the spec to use "ASCII" consistently.
