Since Sun continue to support iso8859-5 as its only alternative, some
Sun-oriented sites use it. Most Russian WWWs use windows-1251 since
Microsoft support it as only alternative. It is nice that latest Netscape
can read any of these charsets and convert them to KOI8-R. Most of
russians use KOI8-R for News or E-mail. 

Sorry, don't know where to get 8859-5 fonts.
