Re: libseed-list Working with seed and Soup

[Alan Knowles <alan akbkhome com>]

After further investigation - it appears that the page 
http://www.google.com.hk/ returns Big5 encoded data, and hence causes 
problems, it appears that getting data from other sites works perfectly 
fine.

Since I don't intend to test against Big5 normally I guess it's not a 
big issue for me....
