Thank you for the explanation. I included a README.Debian file in the
Debian package, but IMHO it should be better to include a README in
the upstream S-XML. ASAP I'll submit a patch ;-)

Here it is:

* Supported character sets

While S-XML authors do not make any efforts to support anything but
the basic Common Lisp character type (and string or stream type), any
character set which is implemented by the underlying Common Lisp
should be supported by S-XML as well.
