He probably meant that everyone using non UTF-8 locale (e.g. ISO-8859-2 for the Easter Europe) would have to do explicit conversions to get by. I know *no one* that doesn't use UTF-8 locale, so I think this is a moot point. And since UTF-8 is a superset of ASCII, the plain old latin characters, standard punctuation and so on is supported the same way it was before. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
