Dera Magnus,

The installer looks excellent. If you are willing to bundle pgAdmin III with
PostgreSQL, you may consider switching the default encoding to UNICODE.

From memory, pgAdmin III is designed to work well with any encoding, except
SQL_ASCII. When using SQL_ASCII, the results for non-US users are
unpredictable.

Because UNICODE includes all other encodings (except maybe some Japanese
exceptions), it should be proposed by default by your installer.

Kind regards,
Jean-Michel Pouré
