Re: [phoenix-dev] Non-English content on the website

Historically, we had links to both German
and French articles that I recall.  It was relatively easy to manage
- for the German umlaut's I replaced with the flattened version (ue, ae,
oe).   Other special characters also went afoul occassionally but
it was easy to find a replacement.    And, the site does still
host the Japanese user group?  And, probably a few links to some Spanish/Italian
plug-ins so its not entirely English.     The Japanese user group
in fact could be interpreted as a multi-lingual initiative.

Subject	[phoenix-dev] Non-English content on the website

Phoenix team,

We currently have some non-English links on our website that stick out
like a sore thumb because (I think) our web server's character set 
doesn't support the foreign characters.

Although we should fix the character set, except for a few translated 
articles, our website is otherwise entirely English.  This is not
necessarily a good thing, but until we have a solid strategy for hosting
content in other languages, I don't think we should have links to 
non-English content on our home page.

What do you think?  Please see 
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=143449 for details.

Denis
