rome

Hello, I'm trying to build an RSS feed using Grails and Rome.

In my controller's rss action, my last command is :

render(text: getFeed("rss_2.0"), contentType:"application/rss+xml", encoding:"ISO-8859-1 ")

However, when I navigate to my feed's URL, the header is :

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
    <rss xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/" version="2.0">
    ...

Does anyone have a clue about WHY the encoding is UTF-8 when I set it to ISO-8859-1 in the render method ???

Thanks for your help !
