   Hello Mr. g00r00,   
      
   Not sure if this has been brought up before, but I thought I would ask anyway.   
   It appears that if someone uses an iOS device to post a message on Synchronet's   
   web interface, the punctuation appears a little funky on Mystic boards (or even   
   on Synchronet boards if using a terminal that doesn't support UTF-8).

   Just curious if UTF-8 support is on the roadmap for Mystic & Netrunner?
