Yes, thanks again to Denis for the script so far. Much kudos!

Oh, thanks for the notice. I wonder why this only happens for the
Japanese file, though. Fixed that reference now, too.

Not that long -- I just run the script since a week or such. :)

Fixed.
There is a different thing with the japanese files though:
/org/www.debian.org/www/devel/debian-med/News/2002/index.ja.html
/org/www.debian.org/www/international/l10n/templates/errors-by-maint.ja.html
/org/www.debian.org/www/international/l10n/templates/errors-by-pkg.ja.html
/org/www.debian.org/www/mirror/sponsors.ja.html
These four files failed to get checked, because iconv can't convert
them to utf8. This is mainly because of including different encodings in
one file. I have tried to fix the debian-med page; although it wasn't
compiled new again. Once it gets regenerated that page should go away.
$> echo -n $file; iconv -f iso-2022-jp -t utf-8 $file # pseudo commandline
errors-by-maint.ja.html iconv: illegal input sequence at position 9974
errors-by-pkg.ja.html iconv: illegal input sequence at position 8604
sponsors.ja.html iconv: illegal input sequence at position 13580
Will try to track those down as good as I am able, I wonder though why
this doesn't fail for any other language.... I can just guess that all
the other languages are iso-8859-something and the wrong byes are in
that encoding, too.
About the sponsors page: Fixed that, but haven't commited the fix yet:
Please find attached a patch for Mirrors.masterlist that changes the
remaining 8bit-characters to entities. There are already other entities
in that very file so that shouldn't be any problem, it is now:
english/mirror/Mirrors.masterlist: ASCII English text
I will commit that change tomorrow if noone objects, according to the
selfhtml reference I have chosen the correct entities.
So, basically there are only errors-by-maint and errors-by-pkg left to
take a look at, and those have the problem of the not-defined encoding
for the Maintainer: control field.... There is a "should" regarding
utf8 in the policy flying around, but that goes a) for the changelog and
b) is /only/ a should. So I guess we are out of luck there.
So long,
Alfie
P.S.: While writing this I've started validate by hand, the ja file is
now down to 1k. :)
