[website] Invalid characters in authors' names on the libraries lists

Hi, I noticed that there are some invalid characters in the names, e.g. on the page http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_56_0_b1 Vicente J. Botet Escribá Ion Gaztañaga JoaquÃn M López Muñoz AFAIU it's not a problem with the charset because it's explicitly written this way in HTML: Vicente J. Botet Escribá Ion Gaztañaga JoaquÃn M López Muñoz So I'm guessing that there is a problem with some conversion from ... to HTML or with the ... source file. If the problem couldn't be fixed, the replacing of the problematic letters would be an obvious workaround. Btw, what needs to be done to modify this page? Is it stored in QBK and built automatically or is it stored in HTML format only? The same question for http://www.boost.org/users/history/version_1_56_0.html, however in this case I managed to find HTML file in the Website module. If I'd like to modify those pages what should I do? Regards, Adam

It should be fixed now. It was due to php 5.3 using ISO-8859-1 by default, when it should be UTF-8.
Btw, what needs to be done to modify this page? Is it stored in QBK and built automatically or is it stored in HTML format only?
It's generated by php. It can be updated with a 'meta/libraries.json' in a module. Let me know if you want me to generate one for a module.

That's generated from the quickbook file at: https://github.com/boostorg/website/blob/master/feed/history/boost_1_56_0.qb...
