There were performance issues, and in addition we had made the decision to treat the message data as 7-bit ASCII where possible, so it made sense at the time. There was also a good deal of cargo-culting, in that "use bytes" would hopefully just avoid any unicode-related issues entirely. ;) IMO it now makes sense to try to deal with Unicode more sensibly, as John's plan outlines. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.1 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Exmh CVS iD8DBQFDVZLdMJF5cimLx9ARAj/8AJ94YbSw/CbL3iE5xXuKsjlAwZ7zrACglJpu LzpIzu/usr+PdxSlEUkoTw4= =noOo -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
