[TYPO3-project-seminars] broken german umlauts in csv export

Hi Niels,

are you sure, that 
plugin.tx_seminars.charsetForCsv = xx 
really works?
It seems to me that it has no effect.

Whatever I do with this

charsetForCsv = ISO-8859-1
charsetForCsv = ISO-8859-15
or the default utf-8 

OpenOfficeCalc shows the umlauts correctly imported with utf-8 and wrong with the other formats.
Should'nt it show it correctly with ISO-8859-1 when exported with this charset?

By the way: I don't find the "import"-function in Excel. Under data there's only "open"

Kind regards
Patriciy
