    Summary: Umlauts in project.xml become garbage in generated site

Description:
Taking the project.xml from "maven genapp" as a starting point, I tried to introduce 
myself as the project owner:

   <!-- details about the organization that 'owns' the project -->
   <organization>
-    <name>Apache Software Foundation</name>
+    <name>Lars K?hne</name>
     <url>http://www.apache.org/</url>
     <logo>http://maven.apache.org/images/jakarta-logo-blue.gif</logo>
   </organization>

which generates "Lars K??hne" in the copyright footer. In my view this shouldn't 
happen, as the xml file encoding is ISO-8859-1, where ? is a character just like a, b, 
c, etc.

As a workaround I tried to use

    <name><![CDATA[Lars K&uuml;hne]]></name>

instead. This makes the browser display "Lars K&uuml;hne", i.e. the generated HTML 
code is "Lars K&amp;uuml;hne". Maybe Maven tries to be too smart here...?

So as far as I can see there seems to be no way to generate Umlauts in the copyright 
footer of the generated docs.
