# What / Why The server can add a header (`npm-notice`) containing the message for the `npm-cli` end user. However, the implementation limits the alphabet to `ascii`. It happens because `http` headers are 7bit `ascii` and application layer is responsible for encoding. #### check-response.js ```js function checkResponse (method, res, registry, startTime, opts_ = {}) { // ... opts.log.notice('', res.headers.get('npm-notice')) ``` I want to propose to add agreed `ascii` to `unicode` decoder between `headers.get` and `log.notice`.
