Forum OpenACS Q&A: Response to OpenACS Internationalization

I have a set of patches to make openacs 3.2.4 work in Japanese
(SJIS). that includes handling user POST and GET requests in
Japanese, as well as delivering .tcl and .adp files which are
authored in ShiftJIS.  If you download the files listed at

http://www.ai.mit.edu/people/hqm/openacs/

You will have a system that runs SJIS. There is one set of patches
to AOLserver, which are generic. The patches to openacs are hardcoded
for SJIS, but you can easily see how to generalize them to any
charset(just replace "shift_jis" with $your_desired_encoding).
