I'm not sure if using HTML entities would be a good idea though, because we'd still may run into encoding issues for the generated text version. So I'm +1 to move to a RELEASE_NOTES.html file in svn, and generate the text version at release time. I'm -0 to use HTML entities for international characters in this file. What do others think?
