Voting isn't the measure: rough consensus is the measure. I agree that a
strawpoll would help establish if we have consensus, though.

I, of course, have always supported putting the registry into UTF-8. If
folks are happy with the resolution to the parser compatibility issue,
I'm happy to go to UTF-8.

So:

+1
