+In order to be compatible with legacy web content when interpreting
+something like Content-Type: text/html; charset=latin1, tools need
+to use a particular set of aliases for encoding labels as well as
+some overriding rules.
+
+For example, US-ASCII and iso-8859-1 on the web are actually aliases for
+windows-1252, and an UTF-8 or UTF-16 BOM takes precedence over any other
+encoding declaration.
+
+The Encoding standard defines all such details so that implementations
+do not have to reverse-engineer each other.
+
+This module has encoding labels and BOM detection, but the actual
+implementation for encoders and decoders is Python's.
