Does that mean "they finally changed the database entries today, but they
changed it to be in ISO 8859-1"?
If so, what do they propose to do about, say, the entry for TTC TELEKOMUNIKACE
Ltd - Czech doesn't use ISO 8859-1; their address is
Třebohostická 987/5, 100 00 Praha 10, but there's no LATIN SMALL LETTER R with
any diacritical mark in 8859-1, and, not surprisingly, whilst Safari, at least,
either gets told that the page is in 8859-1 or infers it from the contents, and
displays Jäger Computergesteuerte Messtechnik GmbH's entry correctly:
00-50-C2 (hex) Jäger Computergesteuerte Messtechnik GmbH
0A2000-0A2FFF (base 16) Jäger Computergesteuerte Messtechnik GmbH
Rheinstraße 2-4
Lorsch Hessen 64653
GERMANY
it displays TTC TELEKOMUNIKACE Ltd's address as junk:
00-50-C2 (hex) TTC TELEKOMUNIKACE Ltd
3D7000-3D7FFF (base 16) TTC TELEKOMUNIKACE Ltd
T�ebohostick� 987/5, Prague 10
Prague CZ-100 00
CZECH REPUBLIC
