Hi,

I have a question regarding the change [58e3d49] that changed the  
encoding of generated visual studio project files from utf-8 to  
Windows-1252.
Although the encoding header in the generated xml file was changed the  
files are still written as utf. Visual Studio does not complain about  
that fact. However If I try to parse the xml file with some other xml  
parsers they will complain about that encoding mismatch.
What was the reason to change the encoding from utf-8 to Windows-1252?

Dominik
