Hello,

first thank you for your report.  The problem with it is that I am 
unable to verify your statements:

- The link in the porters-handbook is okay.
- articles/problem-reports/pr-writing.html exists.
- I do not see any problems with the send-pr interface.

So:
- Where (on which website) exactly did you see the "broken link" 
(definitely not on FreeBSD.org, because there it works).
- What do you mean with "character encoding for certain languages"? 
Could you be a little bit more specific?
- And why would you want to send a PR in several different languages?

Regards


jkois
