Description

When specify project.reporting.outputEncoding and using non-ascii chars in a mojo's description (and also for mojo param descriptions), the chars are incorrectly transferred to the mojo details site page. I think there's a general encoding issue, but this is where I've seen the problem and it is easy to reproduce.

Steps to reproduce with attached project:

• execute 'mvn site'
• have a look in target/generated-site/xdoc/touch-mojo.xml
• for example, check the description of the mojo. It should be "åäöÅÄÖ", but is garbage.
