By default, now at least, Cheetah should be generating unicode objects, so
what's being handled by the application or mod_python might be encoding it =
in
some form or fashion.

(mod_python is EOLd by the way, bewares)

You can (IIRC) tell Cheetah to output a specific encoding with the #encoding
directive at the top of the template.

All of the data generated in your IT infrastructure is seriously valuable.
Why? It contains a definitive record of application performance, security 
threats, fraudulent activity, and more. Splunk takes this data and makes 
sense of it. IT sense. And common sense.
