Hi devs,

few days ago in qgis-developer mailing list we discuss codepage handling
in QGIS and GDAL
http://osgeo-org.1803224.n2.nabble.com/adding-encoding-file-td5075541.html.

Also there is post in this list with related problem
http://osgeo-org.1803224.n2.nabble.com/gdal-dev-DBF-unicode-problem-td5075730.html

Seems than shapelib supports codepages in CPG file and LDID both for
reading and creating DBFs. But OGR doesn't seem to use or expose that
functionality.

Our community want to add to the OGR shapefile driver ability to
read/write CPG file and ready to work on this and create a patch.
Any hints and suggestions are welcome. We really need this
functionality

Thanks
