I am not aware of any problems.

Could you try this again but this time turn on the 'UTF-8 encode results' option on the import setup form? See if that helps?

You should be able to change your profile - > Edit profile > and change the Display Name.

seem to have lost some of you post... could you try again and use the code button if needed to prevent stripping if you pasted in with a bunch of extra styling...

Cyril: Are you able to identify any pattern to the posts with missing content? For example, do they all stop importing at a particular and specific condition within the post - or is is totally random?

Of goodness - I am sorry. Painful.

if you do notice a consistent pattern as to - for example - the first character of each missing part then that might give us a clue to the problem.

Also would be interesting to know the character encoding used on the source database tables as that may be a factor.
