I had problems with the encoding of the txt files as well. The txt files should be just ANSI and the lua files utf-8 without any byte order mark.
At least this is what always works for me so far.
If the txt files are also utf-8 w or w/o BOM the addon manager sometimes does not recognize them (on live servers at least).
I also had a problem with the ingame addon manager which wasn't loading txt files of addons and libraries if the first line in the txt file was not empty. But this was an older error (like 3 years ago) and maybe this isn't the case anymore today.
