Hi, First off, in a followup message, the patch author claims to have received a signed acknowledgement from RedHat -- hope this helps. Second, would it make sense to modify the patch to make a third value for codepage ("asis" or "none"), instead of making it a modifier? From what I understood, there should be no difference between "codepage=oem:con-asis" and "codepage=ansi:con-asis", which, in my mind, calls for a separate value name...
