that could be the point. I didn't check, whether the file was correctly
encoded. The encoding="UTF-8" header was set, but the content could be
wrong (I'll check this on the weekend with a hex editor, too.). It was the
original export from Webtools which couldn't be imported properly with a
blank database scheme.

But, nevertheless, would it not be a good idea to encode all chars except
of ASCII chars as XML entities? I think when using XML this is the best
practice for real interoperability and it is the only way that guarantees
that all of the chars/objects of a XML document can be viewed on any
system. Perhaps I could open a issue in Jira, but before I'll check it
twice. ;)

Best regards,
Fabian.
