Future trends
2 years is a long-term prediction.
- Universal MIME
- MIME in PC-LAN gateways
- Lots of character set bugs
- Widespread usage of
ISO-2022-INT or ISO 10646
Things that will not happen:
- The death of X.400
- The death of US ASCII
- The death of ISO 8859-1 and variants
- Any lessening of frustration with character sets
Charset expert is a safe job!
