I see no garbage for Jan's names in the ChangeLog files of the trunk. By the way, ChangeLog files use iso-2022-7bit that uses ESC-sequence for encoding legacy charsets, and to which legacy charset to map characters depends on the priorities of charsets (and thus depends on one's locale). Perhaps we should now use utf-8 for ChangeLog files to keep constant encoding result. --- Kenichi Handa handa@ni.aist.go.jp
