Marc-Andre Lemburg <m...@egenix.com> added the comment:
Please note that we can only add aliases if the encodings are indeed the same. Given that WhatWG has made changes to several standard encodings, this is especially important, since our codecs are mostly based on what the Unicode consortium defines as these encodings. Tests for aliases can be minimal: just verify that the codecs subsystem detects them and results in the correct codec being used. There's no need to download any WhatWG specs for this. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue25416> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
