Very interesting. I've run into other character set issues in the past when
validating with the W3C validator and Roscoe but they were solved by putting
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?> at the top of my FOAF.

Is the character Ç not in iso-8859-1? Or possibly RAP doesn't respect the xml
encoding type?

In the meantime, I've changed the file so that the nodeID using an ASCII
character "C", but I left the european version in foaf:name -- can you check to
see if RAP handles it well now?
