Object imports not handling apostrophes correctly

Hi, I just noticed that when my 6BONE object was imported into the SixXS system, it's missed out the apostrophe in my surname (it's O'Gorman, not OGorman :)) Just thought I'd let you know.. ps. Is there someone I should contact to get this corrected on my details?

It's a bit delecate. We do not want to enclose apostrophe nor quotes in our database fields. It's prone to error and abuse. This is why we strip all non-alphanumeric characters away from the whois interaction. I can imagine that you prefer to not to be called OGorman. Perhaps we can meet half way, and call you O-Gorman ? I've updated the SixXS CVS to support this.
