Hello, we are using the OSM maps in one of our software products in the following way: Users can enter city names into a search field and the city ´s location (if it is in the database) will be displayed on the map. Recently, cities that have German "Umlaute" (letters like öäü and ß) are no longer found. This used to work previously, but now it does not. Also, the OSM demo application (OSMCtrlApp.exe) does no longer find cities with the mentioned letters included. Does anybody have an idea why this happens, i.e, what we might have to change in our application? Thanks Frank
