i use mysql for many years, when they changed from latin1 to utf-8 (between mysql 3 to 4 or 4 to 5) i had many problems since mysqldump start using utf-8, after many time i get the information how stuff works and today i know how to use it i think that untranslated (unsigned char (binary)) is better than (character (text)) since owfs make comunication over a binary protocol (onewire) and over a binary lcd protocol translation could be implemented before owfs for example let´s think about a owserver - owserver - owserver - onewire - display layout if we put the first owserver to use translations and second to use other translation and third.... we will get really crazy i think that a tranlation on owclient could be really easier to implement
