ZnCharacterReadStream belongs to the Zinc classes. I would have expected a generic character reading stream to be part of the core classes (whatever that means :-) and not a part of some HTTP component classes. But that may only be my limited understanding of Pharo so far :-)
Well, the package is 'Zinc-Character-Encoding-Core' not 'Zinc-HTTP'. Character encoding stands on its own and has nothing to do with HTTP. See also this book chapter https://ci.inria.fr/pharo-contribution/job/EnterprisePharoBook/lastSuccessfu...
Understood.
However if I find classes in a package with prefix "Zinc" and I google for "Zinc Pharo" the first thing that comes up is http://zn.stfx.eu/zn/index.html - Zinc HTTP Components
Ok I'm really just nitpicking here but IMHO it would be nice to decouple these very useful classes from the Zinc namespace.

One day we will have package level comments that will make clear the scope and purpose of groups of code. Anyway, thanks for the feedback. Sven
