By the way, ICQ used to support UTF-16 long long ago, I don't quite understand why UTF-16 was replaced with UTF-8.UTF-8 is more usable than UTF-16. It have backward compatibility with ASCII.
Right, but ICQ-clients had to support both UTF-16 and 8bit before... Now they have to support UTF-8 too — I really don't understand why two unicode versions coexist in same protocol.
Yes, I know that icq is not about compatibility but about breaking the protocol twice a year. :)
