SV: Bug in MySQL code?

[Dominik Ruf]

Hi,

we use MySql as well so took a quick look at this.
As a test I added German Umlaut äöü to a repo description.
Although it is displayed correctly in on the web, in the DB it is not.

I haven't verified it but I bet this is because of
sqlalchemy.db1.convert_unicode = true
in the production.ini.

I guess this is a sqlalchemy setting that allows you to use Umlauts etc. 
in non unicode tables.

Maybe if you set this to false it works as expected.
