[gdal-dev] Question on WFS and encoding

Hi,

I want to transform a WFS to Postgis, using this WFS service:

http://wms.zh.ch/NEKWMS with the layer "landwirtschaftliche-nutzungseignung"

While this works fine, there seems to be an issue with encoding. German 
Umlauts are not correctly displayed after the transformation. Is there a 
way to specify the encoding in ogr2ogr or with some options for WFS?

http://www.gdal.org/drv_wfs.html does not list an encoding option.

Or is it a misconfiguration of the server, if the Umlauts do not display 
correctly?

Thank you for any hints!

Andreas
