The "version" parameter is to be interpreted identically as the VERSION vCard property. If this parameter is present, all vCards in a text/vcard body part MUST have a VERSION property with value identical to that of this MIME parameter.
Encoding considerations: The "charset" MIME parameter, if present, MUST be set to "UTF-8", as defined in [RFC3629]. ...
I wonder whether restricting the allowed values of charset to "UTF-8" is compatible with <http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4288#section-4.2.1>: The "text" media type is intended for sending material that is principally textual in form. A "charset" parameter MAY be used to indicate the charset of the body text for "text" subtypes, notably including the subtype "text/plain", which is a generic subtype for plain text defined in [RFC2046]. If defined, a text "charset" parameter MUST be used to specify a charset name defined in accordance to the procedures laid out in [RFC2978]. If we all agree this is ok it might be good to submit an erratum fpr RFC 4288. Best regards, Julian
