[jira] Commented: (JSPWIKI-180) Drop support for ISO-8859-1

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JSPWIKI-180?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12665274#action_12665274 ] 

Ryczard Haase commented on JSPWIKI-180:
---------------------------------------

Plz... before you drop it... make sure that "motherfucking german umlauts" and something like are supported in URLs. so 90% of my stupid customers don't understand UTF-coded URIs...  thay wand their nice and well-reading "http://jspwiki.org/wiki/Täst".

> JSPWiki currently supports both 8859-1 and UTF-8.  However, the code used to achieve that is cumbersome and causes quite a few confusions.  JSPWiki should drop explicit support for 8859-1 (which is obsolete anyway, thanks to the Euro...)
> Most browsers should offer a pretty good UTF-8 support these days, and we already have automatic DB migration code in place.
