Only a small number, mostly GNOME/GTK 1.4.x software. MrProject HEAD is
certainly GNOME2/GTK2 software and hence uses UTF-8 po files.

If you have trouble finding out if you should store your da.po update as
iso-8859-1 or UTF-8, you can always check the encoding of the existing
da.po, or check the encodings of the other po files. That should give a
hint. If you had done that in this case, you would have found out that
not only was the existing da.po in UTF-8, but so were all other po files
as well. And if you are still uncertain, ask the maintainers before
committing.

Please be more careful in the future,
