Hi all
since I started to use utf-8 on some machines I noticed that we have some
iso-8859-1 characters in ChangeLog. Wouldn't be better to make it utf-8
encoded?

You will allways have different users with different charsets. Some
viewers can detect utf-8, Linux distros are currently moving towards
utf-8 (Redhat has it as default for some time, SUSE had it optionally,
now also default, current Debian policy also requires utf-8 files).
It's simply change that will happen sometimes, the only question is when
:-)

This should not be a problem, you browser should convert it to html
entities, which are hopefully handled okay by sf.

Apache just has to send a correct Content-Type header. Could this be done
with a proper .htaccess file?
If not, we could build a small php script for this purpose:
<?php
header('Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8');
readfile('./ChangeLog');
?>

Should work, too.

Is this why you avoid writing the umlaut in your last name? Be proud of it!

oh well, spent the whole day on £&%@*& charset problems (pages supposed
to work in english, french & arabic), so I will stick to 7bit
for the changelog anyway, so do what you want :)

You usually can add .htaccess and you allways can select charset in
browser (thats what I have to do anyway, since my default is not
iso-8859-1 :-)).
with "ue" I know it will always look fine everywhere... :)
We had iso-8859-1 one, so change to 7bit would be also needed :-)

yep, but isn't iso-8859-1 default for the most of us? :) for example
on a vanilly suse 9.0 here:
om@linux:~> locale charmap
ISO-8859-1

I don't like mixed data and that's why I started this discussion :-)

ISO-8859-1
for 9.1 it is:
$ locale charmap
UTF-8
:-) .. anyway for me default was iso-8859-2...
