RE: Getting to UTF-8 on SVN (was svn commit: r1137103 - in /incubator/ooo/site:)

One way would be to introduce some sort of escape that turns into the ";" but there's more to deal with, I'm sure, between there and response headers.  (And DIFF/PATCH creation).  It's a long journey [;<).

Or, I could taunt the gods of leaking abstractions and try a well-placed .htaccess AddCharset command, which is how I handle it on my web sites.  Nah, couldn't work and not very communal anyhow.

On the other hand, we can see how using Zip as an ODF carrier avoids a lot of problems that can arise when passing around XML documents that rely on Unicode.

Gotcha. I don't have an answer on that right now. Kind of a bummer
that svn's mime-type format validation doesn't allow for that. That
won't be fixable in the near/mid term, unfortunately.
