Hi,

when you enter non-ASCII characters in the fields for keywords or city (e.g. Koroška or München) and perform a search, a UnicodeDecodeError is thrown.

In iwwb.eventlist.searcher.get_results(), the parameters in query are of type string, not Unicode, and they are passed this way to the client service.

(Pdb) query
{'query': ['Koro\xc5\xa1ka'], 'type': '0', 'startDate': '2012-02-25', 'endDate': '2012-03-03', 'city': 'M\xc3\xbcnchen'}
