Julian, your change proposal claims that this is not needed for interoperability. Do you have any data showing this other than the fact that webkit-based browsers and opera does not implement this? Have you searched the open bug databases for webkit to see if there have been any bugs filed on this? My experience is that just because webkit and opera doesn't implement a particular quirk doesn't mean it's not needed for web compatibility. / Jonas On Tue, Jan 18, 2011 at 8:25 AM, Sam Ruby <rubys@intertwingly.net> wrote: > On 12/01/2010 07:35 AM, Sam Ruby wrote: >> >> The current status for this issue: >> >> http://www.w3.org/html/wg/tracker/issues/126 >> http://dev.w3.org/html5/status/issue-status.html#ISSUE-126 >> >> We have a single change proposal to parse backslashes in Content-Type >> headers in <meta> elements in a HTTP compliant manner: >> >> http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-html/2010Nov/0234.html >> >> At this time the Chairs would also like to solicit alternate Change >> Proposals (possibly with "zero edits" as the Proposal Details), in case >> anyone would like to advocate the status quo or a different change than >> the specific one in the existing Change Proposals. >> >> If no counter-proposals or alternate proposals are received by January >> 12th, 2011, we will proceed to evaluate the change proposal that we have >> received to date. > > As we have received no counter-proposals or alternate proposals, the chairs > are issuing a call for consensus on the proposal that we do have.
