As for charsets, AFAIK ISO-8859-1 covers 17 languages, including English,
German, Dutch and French. Nevertheless, every news publisher should try to keep
his data within this charset when working with LENNI. I.e. I have to be aware of
some german signs that aren't covered by 8859-1, but I would try :-)
Leg Godt!
