[TYPO3-dev] convert to metaCharset or renderCharset?

[Popy]

Theorically, your extension does not need to convert charsets.
It have to generate content into the "renderCharset" (which is generally the
database charset too), then the TSFE class will convert it into metaCharset
if needed.

Of course, if you fetch external data, you may have to convert the content
you get into the renderCharset
