I think Sergio is referring to the thing I also missed, there is an
apostrophe in the release name as well as an umlaut. That may be ASCII
(though there are higher unicode points for specific apostrophes, not
sure that was a great idea...), but obviously has a different set of
potential problems (which you'd hope would be easier to fix).
