Hi,
QT3 encodes strings/chars as unicode as long as you use QString and
QChar so the support in QT3 is there to use. The only other obstacle is
that the mysql tables do not specify utf8 encoding by default. "Fixing"
MySQL is fairly trivial but from the few sections of Riv code I've
messed with there is a mix of QString and char pointers all over the
place.
To make sure everything was represented properly would require
reworking all the code that uses char pointers instead of QString/QChar.
I don't really know how much of a rewrite this would be without doing
some code searching but its certainly not impossible to fix. However
due to the amount of changes you'd need lots of testing.
More QT3 specific info is here:

Hello all,
It's already been discussed a lot, but I don't see much movement on
that, and I don't even know if anything is planned.
What is the roadmap for supporting special characters ?
For example, we have an artist called ∆AIMON (I hope it will render
correctly on this mail, the first character is a delta), and we have
no
other choice but to name it AAIMON. Trying to rename it via RDLibrary
gives us ?AIMON.
Any idea ?
Thanks !
