Chris has asked our Area Directors if either method is acceptable.
If they have an opinion then their vote outweighs all of our votes.
When we have their position, we'll let everyone know.

Subject: PMP> Straw vote needed for Multiple vs. UTF-8 Encodings

I completely agree. We at least need a "straw vote" of the PMP
to see how many people insist on multiple encodings versus having
only the single UTF-8 format.
Lloyd and Chris: will you please call for such a vote?
(Or do I have to say "URGENT, URGENT!!"?... ;-)
