6. Encoding is extrinsic to strings
?!?!?!
All the discussion in started because we need UTF-8 in strings now we are back to the beginning?
No, the discussion started because we need a UTF-8 view of data. You missed the point I was making. And you didn't understand the document I wrote.
Sorry, but no. The discussion started by the proposal that we should by default treat std::strings as if they were UTF-8 encoded. Artyom should know because he was the one who did the original proposal. The whole 'view' idea was brought up only much later. [snip/] Matus
