I've filed a bug on SUN's bugtracker, which describes a problem I have when talking from a JAVA CORBA client to an orbit-2 server.

Basically, the JAVA client talk ISO-8859-1 on the wire instead of UTF-8 as announced by the orbit-2 server inside it's IOR. The problem is due to the uncommon encoding of the charset information inside the IOR of the orbit-2 server.

The URL of the upstream patch is here:

http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=6567407

Since this is a major desktop interoperability problem, please go to the SUN bugtracker and vote for this issue in order to put some pressure on SUN to fix this problem within a reasonable amount of time. Maybe someone being acquainted with debian's JAVA Team could point these guys to this issue too, so we get even more votes for fixing this problem.

  TIA,
