Encoding error in trial data

[Maarten van Gompel]

Hi Els, Veronique, and participants,

I found an encoding error in the trial data. The documentation
explicitly says all data files will be delivered in UTF-8 format, but at
least bank.data is iso-8859-1(5). It might help if the XML headers of
the data files could explicitly mention their encoding, to prevent any
confusion.

Regards,

Hi Maarten,

the bank.data file was indeed encoded in ANSI format.
I've checked and made sure all files are now encoded in UTF-8 format.
You can download an updated version of the trial data from:

Best regards
Els.
