Not all translations use iso 8859-1 and we don't want to complicate things for them when it is not needed. > But since we generally do not write ®s after trademarks in our normal > texts, why make an exception here? Because it is part of fairplay, I can live with it. Please read <http://www.lego.com/eng/info/fairplay.asp> which was in the original commit message. The question now is not to use it or not -- the question is _which_ to use. And I prefer ® over (R), what do you? > Or should we write Linux® everytime we refer to Debian® GNU®/Linux®? > It's just plain silly in non-marketspeak<tm>. The trademark holders for Linux, Debian and GNU doesn't request this. LEGO on the other hand likes people to write it that way, we should respect that. Have fun, Alfie -- wenn sich aber manche howto und man und was weiß ich nicht für installanleitungen und hilfen sich anschaut, fragt man sich wirklichen ob das nicht ausserirdische gepinselt haben, oder nicht -- _[puffy]_ in #debian.de
