UTF-8

PHP works internally with ISO-8859-1. Other products / protcols use UTF-8. There is different solutions (workarounds) for deconding / encoding and computing string lengths. But they are groggy / ramshackle solutions... Hence the question: is there any plan to make PHP UTF-enabled ?

PHP6 will be fully unicode-based internally according to the latest discussions on the php internal newsgroup.
