[Mailman-Users] ISO-8859-1/Latin1 vs UTF-8

Apparently all of the German translation of Mailman is in ISO-8859-1 (or ISO-8859-15) - at least in the standard Debian mailman package. Is there a special reason for not moving to UTF-8 in general? Bernd -- Firmix Software GmbH http://www.firmix.at/ mobil: +43 664 4416
