Hub does not support all character encodings

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago

Example feed: http://feeds.feedburner.jp/junkblog

Top of the feed says: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="EUC-JP"?>

EUC-JP = http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extended_Unix_Code

Background info from:
http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-list/2008-January/646960.html

Fixed a while ago; we now just drop these feeds with weird encodings on the
