Re: ITP: libi18n-charset-perl
Hi,
I checked the differences between the two version of Charset.pm and
the authors of wdg-html-validator have indeed modified this module.
The code is still the same but they've added some seven character
sets.
I'll ask the upstream author of I18N::Charset to add these sets to the
module (and explain the situation). In the mean time I'll add them to
the I18N::Charset module in my package so that my package doesn't harm
your package.
Thanks,
Ardo
