If it were a success, then everyone would be using it and we wouldn't have this discussion. Certainly, Unicode is reasonable and the best option in many cases. But the original idea of replacing all other character sets won't really happen anytime soon. Since you work in Japan, I would think you know about the problems, since much of the technical opposition comes from there. -- Peter Eisentraut http://developer.postgresql.org/~petere/ ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 4: Don't 'kill -9' the postmaster
