Thank you, Ard

I already did that. But it doesn't change anything. I found this in my
web.xml in the WEB-INF folder of my cocoon-build:

<!--
      Set encoding used by the container. If not set the ISO-8859-1 encoding
      will be assumed.
      Since the servlet specification requires that the ISO-8859-1 encoding
      is used (by default), you should never change this value unless
      you have a buggy servlet container.
    -->
    <init-param>
      <param-name>container-encoding</param-name>
      <param-value>ISO-8859-1</param-value>
    </init-param>

Servlet-Container used is Tomcat 5.0.28

I switched the encoding parameter to UTF-8 to check whether it would
work, and it seems to. But still the coplets aren't encoded properly.

Then I saw that the whole page is encoded in ISO-8859-1, having been
serialized in HTML (as seen in the doctype of the page). So I looked
for the HTML-Serializer in my portal/sitemap.xmap and changed the
encoding of the html-serializer, too. no difference

these are the feed-adresses that I want to incorporate. both don't
have an encoding set (do RSS-feeds have to have that?) but they
clearly contain UTF-8 encoded characters.

http://www.industrial-technology-and-witchcraft.de/index.php/ITW/itw-rss20/
http://www.netzpolitik.org/feed/

so, I guess that somewhere along the line from generating to
serializing these feeds are messed with in a way that the encoding set
in the serializers has no effect whatsoever.

suggestions as to where this could be, anyone?

it would be greatly appreciated :)
