I like the simplicity. Extra features often don’t make software better.

Some way to handle encodings correctly would have been nice, though… ;p

I really didn’t notice. It looks okay here, but my browser is sending ‘Accept-Charset: UTF-8,*’

How about linkifying links? I kept trying to follow the link to the bug report… :)

FWIW the only thing that’s incorrect is the Content-Type, which IMO should be correctly set by the web server, and for compatibility, or people with rubbish servers (maybe hosting where they can’t provide a reasonable configuration), use @<meta http-equiv=“Content-Type” content=“text/html;charset=UTF-8” />@. The HTML 4 recommendation explicitly says: “user agents must not assume any default value for the “charset” parameter.” IE6 gets this right, my configuration of Firefox gets this right, Safari doesn’t.

PS. I’m silly, links can be linkified if you RTFM
