Hello to all,
  
  I'm from Portugal and I use ISO-8859-1 (Western Europe).
  
  I've read in a article:
  
  "The International Standards Organization plan to replace the ISO 8859-1 
  character set with ISO 8859-15 which removes a few little used characters 
  and adds more European relevant characters such as the Euro currency 
  symbol."
  
  So, my question is:
  
  Can I change now from 8859-1 to 8859-15 or should I wait?
  
  I have already tested changing my console (rc.conf: font8xN="iso15-8xN", 
  LC_CTYPE pt_PT.DIS_8859-15, etc) and all keys from 8859-1 plus EURO key form 
  8859-15 works very well.
  
  
  
Thanks very much,
