How to vote for this bug? I feel this issue should have high priority because there's a risk that the DB is filled with mixed UTF-8 and ISO8859-1 encodings.
As I understand it, that's precisely the problem. Anything entered in the AppDB since the switch is UTF-8. Older entries are littered with ISO-8859-1 characters. Switching the website codepage back to ISO-8859-1 would fix the display of ISO-8859-1 characters, but cause the UTF-8 characters to display incorrectly. Either way, entries are going to have to be fixed manually. Since the rest of the website is UTF-8, it makes more sense to me to change the ISO-8859-1 characters to UTF-8 than the other way around. Feel free to correct me if I'm mistaken.
