I find the term "foreign" and the attitude it conveys inappropriate.

When Unicode double-byte replaces older single-byte
encoding, everything is doubled; transfer speed, disk
storage space, etc. (One way to minimize this is to
use UTF-8 if the bulk of the material is basic Latin.)

There is a furious debate about whether it is time to send UTF-8 all the

plenty of people responded about trade-offs between utf-8 page size and conversion

there is one more thing: scsu would work well as an html/xml encoding and is easily
decoded without bulky tables. it can be similarly compact to language-specific
codepages.
so, how do we get scsu
