But since one of the main aims of XML is to produce portable documents
why tie yourself to a proprietary encoding? Many XML parsers will not be
able to deal with that encoding, If you use iso-8859-1 (latin 1) your
document will be a lot more portable. If you used utf-8 (the default)
then your document would work with all XML parsers.
