I am using English, German and japanese with WO now, and all 3 Language have no Problems with UTF-8.
But you are right there are many other Language out there. Also thanks to Mike for fixing the Velocity Template Engine to UTF-8 last Summer. That helped a lot, and it is possible now to make all Templates in Japanese. But usually Japanese is one of the most Problems because there are about 7-8 different Encodings and with UTF-8 it is like "It just works"....
