Do you think that finding such a "mapping" for non-latin languages it also possible? What about all Cyrillic, Chinese, Japanese, etc. -based languages? Sorry if I sound rude, but wouldn't it be better if the time spent on working around ascii-only support is used to remove that limitation instead? -- dam JabberID: dam@jabber.minus273.org
