Solderpunk recently started second guessing some gemini things over on cornedbeef:

cornedbeef - the mercury protocol

In short, I hate it and hope you don't do it.

Why?

Honestly, the only thing in the Mercury spec that I think is a good idea is just biting the bullet and saying UTF-8 is manditory for text/gemini. I don't see a downside there. So, uh... do that! And we shall never speak of this Mercury thing ever again, okay?
