Any comments, Philippe ? Anyway, IMHO Unicode and UTF-8 are not broken in Pharo. It is perfectly possible, as you know, to write Seaside web apps or pure web services that deal correctly with Unicode through UTF-8, storing data is databases and/or files, or sending it further along to other services.
On the other hand, I can imagine that not everything that one could wish for is already there, so slowly filling these functionality holes is important as well. But unless we know what they are, we can't begin to make progress. Sven On 12 Jul 2011, at 22:45, Lukas Renggli wrote: > I don't remember.
