Bug#337539: UTF-8 footnote is out of date (pre-sarge)
Package: debian-policy
Version: 3.6.2.1
Severity: minor
C.2.2 has a footnote that talks about UTF-8 but it's really out of date:
For example, in unstable, GNOME
2 has excellent support (almost level 2) in almost all its
applications; the big remaining one is gnome-terminal, of which one
requires development versions in order to support UTF-8 (available in
Debian experimental now if you want to play). I think that by the
time Sarge is released, UTF-8 support will start to hit critical mass.
