[OASIS Issue Tracker] (EBXMLMSG-85) CharacterSet property definition

Theo Kramer commented on EBXMLMSG-85:
-------------------------------------

Seeing that this is a recommendation only I would propose changing "CharacterSet" to "encoding". This also consistent with Extensible Markup Language (XML) 1.0 (Fifth Edition) - section 4.3.3 Character Encoding in Entities. This would only affect section 3.1 and appendix A.2 of the AS4 Profile

> AS4 states:
> "For XML payloads, an eb:PartInfo/eb:PartProperties/eb:Property/@name="CharacterSet" value is RECOMMENDED to identify the character set of the payload before compression was applied."
> However,  UTF-8 is not a character set, but a character encoding of Unicode. Unicode is the character set.  UTF-16 is an alternative encoding. Etc.
