For more details, see this document: http://dev.w3.org/html5/decision-policy/decision-policy.html Status: Accepted Change Description: see diff given below Rationale: Concurred with reporter's comments. RFC4648 says to refer to the encoding as "base64", so that's what I did. That seems unambiguous given the definitions in RFC4648. 39818 3 contributor 2010-09-28 22:31:08 +0000 Checked in as WHATWG revision r5536.
