There is something you can do now to promote UTF-8 in Fidonet. You can join the UTF-8 nodelist project. For some time now, ZC2 distributes a UTF-8 version of the nodelist in parallel witg the old ASCII only list. It is called DAILYUTF. Link into the DAILYUTF filw area here...
So far participation is limited, but it would be a great push for the project if R50 were to join. IIRC RC50 has said that he would join if five NCs in R50 would express the wish to join. (Or was it four?) NC5075 has already stated he would join and he has an utfn5075.nnn ready for submission. So how about doing some lobbying among your fellow NCs in R50?
