For application translations (regular po files), we do require them to be encoded in UTF-8. I'm not sure of whether we have any similar formal requirement for docs translations, but I think it would not make sense not to have it, given the above. I think you're pretty safe to give the offending translator a slap and tell him or her to start using UTF-8. ;-) Christian _______________________________________________ gnome-i18n mailing list gnome-i18n@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-i18n
