OpenSolaris uses Unicode

OpenSolaris.org is open – and guess what: It’s all Unicode! Yes, all pages are encoded in UTF-8! As far as I know, this is the first Sun-sponsored web site that’s ready for content in all languages from day 1. There actually is no non-English content yet as far as I can tell, but when it arrives, the far-too-common text data corruption won’t occur. In the meantime, the “smart quotes” give a little taste of what’s possible.

Whoever made this decision: Thank you!
