Hi Ad,
I guess it is a standard procedure to have Short-URL supporting
multibyte characters when using MediaWiki. Using this feature without
having to do a backflip in some environments will be nice. Starting with
MW 1.26+ there are issues and I currently do not know how I should do my
backflip.
Cheers Karsten
PS See ya!

Hi Karsten,
The big question of course is why at all you are fishing in this water

Why do you use this construction?
By the way: I saw your message about the SMWCon, thanks for that and
I'll be
there!
