IIRC (based on information from Tobias???) it's a Seaside related issue that has been fixed in some newer version of something or other. We should probably take this discussion to squeak-dev.

Itâs just a bug. SS is just not converting wide strings to UTF-8.
If you have time to move SS to a new image, sure. But otherwise, fixing this bug is probably less work.

Would a newer image and VM solve this?
Why do we continue to run on this old image and VM?

That's probably because someone has registered with a name containing

That is probably it. Note that St??phane Rollandin (spfa) has just registered a new account. That is probably showing up on the source.squeak.org http://source.squeak.org/ home page, and blowing up when the wide string is displayed.
I see the same thing on squeaksource.com http://squeaksource.com/ from time to time. If we do nothing, it will probably "fix" itself in a little while (after Stef's activity becomes old news and scrolls off the home page).
If the problem does not go away by itself, may need to fix it in the source.squeak.org http://source.squeak.org/ image, which involves finding the offending WideString and patching it to be displayable.
The good news is that we are adding a more diverse range of developers to source.squeak.org http://source.squeak.org/ :-)

Thanks whoever requested the restart. The machine seems to have four times as much RAM as before. I've hopefully restarted all services. Should anything be missing, let me know!

Hi All,
box4 seems to have been down since yesterday. Box3 is fine, so
hopefully
a restart will bring box4 back up. The problem is that only the SFC has access to the box, and only
they
can request a restart. So please ask them to do so.
Thanks, Levente
