Paul Joseph Davis commented on COUCHDB-1624:
--------------------------------------------
[~breun] So the file you posted is valid UTF-8 but after having enough issues
poking around I want to ask if you can double check that you didn't run it
through an editor that "fixed" the problem for you.
That, said, there are two byte sequences in your file 0xC293 and a 0xC294 that
are valid UTF-8. While the JSON spec disallows a small number of bare
characters in strings, these aren't in that set and thus should be expected to
roundtrip just fine through CouchDB.
> CouchDB shouldn't accept or serve JSON with control-characters

> According to http://www.json.org/ control-characters are not valid characters
> in JSON. Due to a character encoding bug one of our applications was sending
> JSON with control-characters to CouchDB. CouchDB happily accepts this
> (invalid) JSON and also serves it, but then we started getting problems in a
> client that uses the Svenson JSON library which (correctly) complains about
> invalid characters in the JSON served by CouchDB.
