However, I don't want * to have to *force* this encoding on every Japanese FreeBSD user. Perhaps * some of them already have a mass of documentation in SJIS format, and * they would prefer to stick with SJIS format if at all possible -- or they * have a commercial application that can only handle SJIS format. When did we ever say we are going to force eucJP encoding to every Japanese FreeBSD user?!? We have no problem with having a framework to let people choose. We're just saying that we would like to choose a default that makes sense to most Japanese systems and have people with special requirements (such as the ones you mentioned above) change it by themselves.
