But T.61 is the main requirement for supporting LDAP v2. Also I don't think there is a standard set of T.61 conversions in Java. In fact as far as I know you can represent characters in T.61 that have no correspondence in UCS-2/UTF-8.

I'd like to see an example; T.61 was on the list of charsets for which Unicode was supposed to provide round-trip compatibility (convert into Unicode and back with no loss of information).
