Hello, we have moved from one server to another and on the new machine, apache is configured to deliver text files with the proper utf-8 encoding. On the former machine, this was obviously not the case. The former admin decided to save the license.txt in windows encoding which made it display properly in the users browser then. But now, it looks really nasty. Example:
<http://www.stadtteilgeschichten.net/retrieve/940/license.txt> Now I found, that all these licenses get copied to the assetstore at the time they are granted with a timestamp and username in the first line making each of them unique and an associated database entry containing the precise file size. Now, I could certainly put together some script to find all license files and change the special characters. This would probably reduce the file size as well, which would introduce errors to the db implicitly. Ok, I could produce another script to change the database entries accordingly. All this looks like quite some work for a more or less cosmetic problem. I see that the design makes sense because content should not be changed in an archive after the date of ingestion, but I think that this change is not dishonest. I could also reconfigure apache to deliver text files the old way but this means to perpetuate the situation for all items added from now on. Any advice appreciated.
