New port: www/mod_encoding

mod_encoding - Apache module for non-ascii filename interoperability

	This module improves non-ascii filename interoperability
	of apache (and mod_dav).

	It seems many WebDAV clients send filename in its platform-local
	encoding. But since mod_dav expects everything, even HTTP
	request line, to be in UTF-8, this causes an interoperability
	problem.

Note by maintainer: this port also solves the annoying form of
authentication that Windows machines do against a DAV enabled server:
"hostname\\username" instaed of the standard "username"

mod_encoding - Apache module for non-ascii filename interoperability
This module improves non-ascii filename interoperability of apache
(and mod_dav).
It seems many WebDAV clients send filename in its platform-local
encoding. But since mod_dav expects everything, even HTTP request
line, to be in UTF-8, this causes an interoperability problem.
I believe this is a future issue for specification (RFC?) to
standardize encoding used in HTTP request-line and HTTP header, but
life would be much easier if mod_dav (and others) can handle various
encodings sent by clients, TODAY. This module does just that.
This module adds following directives: EncodingEngine, SetServerEncoding,
AddClientEncoding, DefaultClientEncoding, and NormalizeUsername.
Note by maintainer:
It also solves the problem with the "hostname\\username"
way of authentication that Windows machines do when they
attach to a DAV server. See the use of the NormalizeUsername
directive.
