Re: restrictions when defining charsets

Folks,

    ---- Included message:

      However, if
    anyone can come up with a better definition of a character set that
    doesn't raise the hackles of other folks on this list, I'm sure I'll be
    happy to incorporate their language.  Until then, I guess I'm going to
    stick with the prose I proposed.

This is the key to the reason I suggested moving the otherwise-facinating
general discussion about characters and glyphs to another venue.  The
discussion does not seem to be producing concrete text for inclusion in
the revised MIME spec.

To the extent that folks are willing to generate candidate text which
supports their view of characters, glyphs, and the state of the world,
fine.  Otherwise, it seems to me that it mostly is serving to delay
closure on the revised MIME spec.
