Just out of curiopusity, I wonder why we can't make the encoding of
SGML docs to be UTF-8, rather than current ISO-8859-1.

As long as everything is written in ASCII, the size of docs will be
almost same even if UTF-8 is used. Plus, if the encoding is changed to
UTF-8, it is very easy to translate the doc to local languages. As far
as I know, al of local language docs under
https://www.postgresql.org/docs/ are using UTF-8.

Best regards,
