No, you said ?Not quite.? when Stephane said UTF-8 had quasi-monopoly, and 
you rectified ?Unspecified rules?.
Unspecified is UTF-8, by specification. So UTF-8 does have a quasi-monopoly.

The fact that you made a difference between unspecified and utf-8 for 
encoding, and that you provided both tools to detect encoding and language 
made it seem like you were considering both cases the same, while encoding 
is always known (unspecified == utf-8) while language is sometimes unknown.
I also explicitely pointed this difference to encourage people to specify 
the language in their Gemini headers, as a lot of Gemini pages currently 
have an unspecified language.

Please stop splitting your answers in several emails like this, it?s 
uselessly filling the mailing list and making discussions harder to follow.
I do not need to validate that, I know that my server header does not 
contain a charset tag.
