Errrr, I could be wrong here, but if a file is valid 7-bit ASCII, it actually *is* valid UTF-8, isn't it now? :) Thus, the Policy requirement that the Debian changelog be valid UTF-8 should really be satisfied by a valid 7-bit ASCII file - it just does not need to use any of the "UTF-8 extensions".
