We are working to enable the multi-language features of the BOINC web pages. For example if your browser reports its language as Deutsch, you should get download instructions in that language. As part of this, we were modifying some settings on the server. Could you tell me, can you now type accented and umlaut characters into the forums OK? Or is it still broken?

Do the characters in new posts look correct?

I changed the apache setting "AddDefaultCharset" from "UTF-8" to "Off" this week which clearly is causing the problem. The result of this is that the Encoding for the forums changed from "UTF-8" to "ISO-8859-1" I think. Unforunatly I have very little experince with this so I do not know what is the correct setting is. If I need to will write to the BOINC developers again and see if they can help me out.

Do you have any problems with the seti/boinc webpages?
