[JDEV] about encoding

[Jau-Lung Huang]

Hi...All:

      Recently I try to use jabber in Chinese(Big5 Encoding) Environment.
After some testing,winjab and JabberIM works fine in Big5.But
JabberApplet and KVM is not.I ever think that maybe we can change all to 
Unicode Environment to solve this problem. But It Still Can't solve all
problem.Because Some Environment still are Big5 or their native language
encoding. So we think that maybe add such attribute to Jabber Protocol
to solve the problem.
like this:
<message encoding="big5">msg content</message>

is it a good way to integrate  the Unicode and other native encoding ?
welcome any idea or suggestion
Thanks.
