2585	no Syndication feeds (RSS and Atom) codepage select (some similar to #2584)	anonymous	Adrian Holovaty	"some similar to #2584
Django works '''only''' with utf8 codepage in Syndication feeds (RSS and Atom) (and maybe much more others places).

In ''django/contrib/syndication/feeds.py'' hardcode defined utf-8 codepage in  '''.decode('utf-8')''' conversions everywhere.

Better to move this option out to settings.py as RSSATOM_CODEPAGE or try to extract this data from DEFAULT_CHARSET
