 Today I played around with internationalization. My source code labels and
 template files contain German language by default which I wanted to
 translate into English. All files are utf-8 encoded so that I can use
 special Umlauts like "äöüß".

 Creating the .po file with "makemessages -l en" I find that e.g. the word
 "Straße" (=street) will be shown in the .po file as

 {{{
 #: .\survey\models.py:71
 msgid "Straße"   <-- strange chars here!
 msgstr "Street"
 }}}

 I was editing the .po file with VIM utf-8 encoding set on so in my opinion
 I should see "Straße" instead of that strange looking word. I am not sure
 if this is a Windows gettext related bug and will try it on my Linux box
 tomorrow. Anyway other languages might be affected by this, too. On the
 other hand this is only a little quirk and translation within the
 application works fine for me.
