Hi Neal,

Since Sakai become a world-wild software. What about make a Sakai Cloud.

I know there are still a lot of poor people around the world, we cannot 
ignore them.
So, I suggest use RFC 1149 (IP over Avian Carriers)[1] and RFC2549(IP 
over Avian Carriers with Quality of Service)[2] as our communication 
protocol.
If a user has a dove, he/she can use Sakai. When a dove is sent, the 
Sakai CLOUD can be seen immediately.

And, Sakai currently use UTF-8, it has so many disadvantages, one of 
which is it must use 3 bytes to represent a Chinese character.
So, what about use UTF-9, it seems a much powerful encoding.
