I doubt it: last I checked Germany was in the euro zone, and iso8859-1 
doesn't have an € symbol. Maybe you mean iso8859-15 ? ;-)

(btw: Linux is a multiple _concurrent_ users systems. If all of them 
share the same character set, then there's no problem using iso8859-x, 
otherwise utf is the only available option. The problem is that current 
implementations of utf8 systems just plain suck, and the first thing I 
do is remove all traces of utf8 in /etc/sysconfig/i18n, but that's 
because all the locales I use share the same charset).
