Based on past history, we may never get perfect encoding for historical Earthlings, e.g. what about the following list looks well-planned and coordinated for the future?: ASCII, ISO 8859-1 (Latin-1), ISO 8859-2 (Latin-2), ISO 8859-3, ISO 8859-4, ISO 8859-5 (Cyrillic), ISO 8859-6 (Arabic), ISO 8859-7 (Greek), ISO 8859-8 (Hebrew), ISO 8859-8-I, ISO 8859-10, ISO 8859-13, ISO 8859-14, ISO 8859-15, ISO 8859-16, Windows-1250, Windows-1251, Windows-1252, Windows-1253, Windows-1254, Windows-1255, Windows-1256, Windows-1257, Windows-1258, KOI8-R, KOI8-U, KOI8-RU, Shift_JIS, EUC-JP, EUC-KR, GB2312, GBK, Big5, HZ-GB-2312, TIS-620, MacRoman, MacCyrillic, UTF-8, UTF-16 (BE/LE), UTF-32 (BE/LE), CESU-8, UTF-7, IBM866, IBM437, IBM850, IBM852, IBM855, IBM857, IBM862, IBM864, IBM866, KZ1048, IBM874 (TIS-620), VNI, Windows-874, Mac Thai, Mac Central European.
