Completely break backward-compatibility is a bad idea. And bumping of the version won't solve any problem with handling of strings in old applications. We can do that, of course, when it will be clearly documented that new API version support only UTF-8. -- WBR, SD. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Transform Data into Opportunity.
