I've just converted my Koha install to use UTF-8. With so many pieces of the puzzle needing to be properly configured (MySQL, Apache, Koha, web browser, etc) I'd like a way to test that things are working properly. I could use some suggestions for some basic tests. Sure ...
I currently don't have any records requiring UTF-8. Can someone send me a test marc21 file I could try importing with bulkmarcimport (which I haven't used yet) and make sure it displays properly. Here's a turkish one you can try out:

Pretty much all my records come from Z3950 searches so I should probably check that too. Can someone point me to a Z3950 Server and record that also has a web interface so I can compare the records imported? The Library of Congress has a web gateway: http://catalog.loc.gov/
