ISSUE-2360 (idl-borked): Last Call Issue: encoding breakage in idl conversion [SVG 1.1 F2  Last Call]

http://www.w3.org/Graphics/SVG/WG/track/issues/2360

Raised by: Chris Lilley
On product: SVG 1.1 F2  Last Call

I'm aware that the last call commenting period ended about a month ago
[1] but here goes: I was just crawling through the new specification
when I stumbled across unexpected characters in section "7.14.4
Interface SVGTransform" [2], such as "scale(‚Ä¶)", where the
unexpected characters are "‚Ä¶". As there are several occurrences, I'm
guessing that they were probably caused by some issue with the
generation scripts...? Update: I just confirmed the hypothesis and the
issue seems to be triggered by the several ellipsis characters ("…")
present in svg.idl [3]. Opening that file with an UTF-8 text editor
properly displays "scale(…)" (found in line 3078, for example).


Hope this helps,
 Helder
