Things are not as simple. I'll try to explain the issues:
- Jetspeed sets the encoding to UTF-8 for all contents delivered. Unless
we have a way to specify the needed global encoding, it is a simple way
to guarantee that we can render any combination of portlets containing
information in several languages (imagine a chinese channel, a hebrew, a
german and a japanese in the same page). An alternative would be to have
a negotiation process for each page, and use the minimal needed
encoding, but it looks too complicated. The history winds blow in our
favor, as there is a strong movement towards unicode as the standard
character encoding.
- Jetspeed uses UTF-8 to encode all channels in the disk cache
(regardless of the encoding used for the original channel). This is
again for simplicity.
- Jetspeed uses the encoding configured in "content.defaultencoding" for
local resources for which the protocol does not indicate a given
encoding.
This is the theory. Now, when we delivered 1.3a1, the only example that
we have of multibyte channel has stopped working. I think there is a
problem related with cache, but I cannot find it (yet :). This channel
is http://www.javable.com/rus/rss.shtml. I'm looking at that problem,
and I'll report as soon as I find something.
