Hey Alexey!

Exactly what does either of those statements have to do with you and KOI8-R?

Speaking for myself I am happy with ASCII but recognize that if
internationalization of text messaging, such as what (ideally) happens in
Fidonet, requires a more robust character set than is possible with crippleware
- golded being a prime example of Fidonet crippleware.  An 8 bit character set
can never achieve the greater goal that is within the reach of Fidonet systems
currently deploying utf-8, Little Mikey's Brain being an ultra-prime example of
this lofty ideal known as internationalized text messaging.

So there!  Translate *that* into KOI8-R and rotate.  :::evil grin:::

BTW I still think it is Ukrainian.  Too bad you insist on employing your
inferior system that cannot deny or verify it.  Kids these days.  :::sigh:::

Life is good,
Maurice
