54 | <h2 class="break">Problem Statement</h2>
|
---|
55 | <ul>
|
---|
56 | <li>As of recent, there was no interop for non-ASCII filenames in
|
---|
57 | Content-Disposition header fields. See <a href="http://greenbytes.de/tech/tc2231/">http://greenbytes.de/tech/tc2231/</a> for the ugly details.</li>
|
---|
58 | <li>There was confusion about who is defining what (RFC 2616 vs RFC 2183).</li>
|
---|
59 | <li>RFC 2183 contains complicated options that do not make sense in HTTP.</li>
|
---|
60 | </ul>
|
---|
61 |
|
---|
62 | <h2 class="break">Thus...</h2>
|
---|
63 | <ul>
|
---|
64 | <li>Define in separate spec from the two above, clarifying I18N, removing options, fixing bugs.</li>
|
---|
65 | <li>Approved <tt><blink></tt>2011-03-28<tt></blink></tt>.</li>
|
---|
66 | <li>Firefox, Opera, and Konqueror did implement this for a long time.</li>
|
---|
67 | <li>Chrome 9 and IE 9 followed since IETF LC.</li>
|
---|
68 | <li>Only one major UA left (just saying).</li>
|
---|
69 | </ul>
|
---|
70 |
|
---|
71 | <h2 class="break">Why six months between IETF LC and now?</h2>
|
---|
72 | <ul>
|
---|
73 | <li>Some UA vendors wanted to discuss error handling.</li>
|
---|
74 | <li>Turns out that in this case, error handling was inconsistent.</li>
|
---|
75 | </ul>
|
---|
76 |
|
---|
77 | <h2>Next steps</h2>
|
---|
78 | <ul>
|
---|
79 | <li>Reference from HTTPbis specs?</li>
|
---|
80 | <li>Advance to Draft Standard soon?</li>
|
---|
81 | </ul>
