Cyrillic Charset Soup by Roman Czyborra has information about the
encoding of languages using cyrillic letters and why most people do
not use ISO 8859-5:

    http://czyborra.com/charsets/cyrillic.html

Information about character encoding is also available at my home
page. Try any of these URLs:

*Note:* For covering *all* cyrillic (not just the characters used for
Russian) you have to use Unicode. All other encodings lack some
characters.
