At FOSDEM it was claimed that Windows natively uses UCS-2, and there are also continuing rumours that the Java Unicode encoding is not quite UTF-8, so there is going to be a certain pressure to support other Unicode encodings besides UTF-8. As for the names, the SQL standard defines most of those. -- Peter Eisentraut [EMAIL PROTECTED] ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 4: Don't 'kill -9' the postmaster
