The following page has been changed by Deborah Cawkwell:
http://esw.w3.org/topic/geoUnicodeConsiderationsWhenUpgrading


The comment on the change is:
Markup is light - strengthen.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
     * HTML markup
     * English
  
- Slightly heavier
+ Slightly heavier, but given that a large proportion of a web page is HTML mark-up, where characters remain 1 byte, then this is quite negligible.
  
     * Latin languages: characters, eg, e acute, outside the ASCII range (128 codepoints), are represented by one byte in ISO-8859-1, but typically two bytes in UTF-8, so a small, but acceptable, increase in page size should be expected.
