Can you let me know what the "real" text of the list description was? I
assume it was in Kanji letters?

That could be the source of the problem, as CMU would take the encoded
string, would try to decode it to UTF-8 and would fail. Phew ... that's
a tricky one to fix.

Please send me an example description of one of your lists that failed
to import and I will see what I can do.
