Package: jpilot
Version: 0.99.8-0.99.9-pre-20060225-3
Severity: critical
Justification: causes serious data loss


Hi,

first, I hope the severity is correct, but as data loss is involved and
can only be restored through a backup, this seemed to be the correct
choice.

OK, here it is:
- create an appointment with a text containing accented characters, like
  'ceci est la vérité sortie du test' (you can use the same text in the
  title _and_ in the comment). Make this appointment recurrent
  (with or without end date doesn't make a difference).
- delete one of the appointments (press the 'current' key).
- title _and_ comment are cut just before the first non-ascii character
  (i.e. remains only 'ceci est la v').

I already lost different meeting contents this way as my current customer has
an ä/ä in its company name... So, for me, the issue is at least
important, if not grave.

My character set option in jpilot is set to 'UTF: Latin 1, Western
Europe (CP 1252)'.

Thanks for your help,
Eric
