problem parsing ADS records with utf-8 characters
Hi there, I'm project manager for the Astrophysics Data System and I just learned from our users that zotero incorrectly parses ADS records containing utf-8 characters. For instance, consider this record:
http://adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/2008ISTSP...2..718B
The page is utf-8 encoded and shows up fine in the web browser. Once you add it to your library you will see that the author's first name is displayed incorrecly due to the accented characters. This is with zotero 1.0.10 / firefox 3.0.8 / fedora core 8.
Can somebody in the know look into this and let me know whether it's an application bug or if there is something to be done on our end?
Thanks,
-- Alberto

For example, here's the RIS file for that record:
http://adsabs.harvard.edu/cgi-bin/nph-bib_query?bibcode=2008ISTSP...2..718B&data_type=REFMAN&db_key=AST&nocookieset=1
