You saw that in our CVS HTML file that is part of the source
distribution?  That is the master copy.

I see lots of FAQs in CVS that are not UTF8:

	FAQ.html:    <META http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=US-ASCII">
	FAQ_MINGW.html:  <meta http-equiv="content-type"
	FAQ_brazilian.html:    <META http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
	FAQ_czech.html:<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
	FAQ_czech.html:<meta http-equiv="Content-language" content="cs">
	FAQ_farsi.html:<META http-equiv=Content-Type content="text/html; charset=utf-8"></HEAD>
	FAQ_french.html:    <META http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
	FAQ_german.html:<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8">
	FAQ_hungarian.html: http-equiv="content-type">
	FAQ_japanese.html:<META http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8">
	FAQ_polish.html:         <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-2">
	FAQ_russian.html:    <META http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=koi8-r">
	FAQ_turkish.html:       <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso8859-9">

Do they all have to be converted?
