Then the software should be fixed.  The lack of proper UTF-8 support is
really a pity in 2009 (2010 soon).

I'd rather not attach too many things to google code project, for the
sake of our independence, whereas LilyPond is already part of GNU.  If
there is no way to create a Spanish-speaking list with enough support
for Spanish (actually UTF-8 encoding), we could ask Valentin to host the
list on lilynet.net, but this doesn't sound like a proper solution for a
list almost as big (in number of subscribers) as lilypond-user-fr.

Best,
