POM is not read using the right encoding

Description

IIRC XML standard says that default encoding is UTF-8 for xml files

That can be overriden with
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>

But files without header saved as UTF8 are not parsed in some systems (eg windows, solaris), while files saved as other encoding (I believe it was ansi) break under a Mac mini with yellowdog linux

That mini uses IBM JDK (build 1.4.2, J2RE 1.4.2 IBM build cxppc32142-20050929 (SR3) (JIT enabled: jitc))

It also breaks under Pentium 4 with Linux RHEL 3.5, IBM's JDK 1.4.2 (as reported by a user in the mailing list)

Seems that common environment is the IBM JDK

yes, seems that IBM reads UTF8 (as it should be) and Sun other format

encoding is used correctly to read the xml now, and that encoding is now attached to all model-class instances, so that the corresponding model writers can use it.
