| Summary | 0000610: use utf-8 as encoding | ||||
| Description | Use utf-8 as encoding for all user visible strings to open the possibility to translate to non latin languages. | ||||
| Additional Information | Having unix style NL-only line endings would be nice too (saves space and the production system is using Linux anyway). | ||||

Yeah using utf8 everywhere would be nice. Translingo is using utf8 as encoding that could cause some issues when saving strings with non-ascii chars |

Using UTF-8 could cause trouble with legacy data in the database. So implementing it in the front end code is not enough. A database conversion script must be implemented too. Maybe a dump and restore with a recode in between will work ... needs testing though. |
