Can't help remembering Randall Munroe's take on such things: https://xkcd.com/927/ I agree that the Far Eastern systems that can't easily be replaced by Unicode are that way mostly because they're a mess. But I'm still of the opinion that locking ourselves into Unicode is a choice we might regret, far down the road. regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
