what i think we are missing the most is to hear about the "main" developers (project owners?) (adrian, malcolm, jacob etc.) opinion about unicode-ification. if they think we should switch django completely to unicode, then fine. but if they think that django should still support bytestrings, i really don't see how we could do the unicode-ification without breaking backwards compatibility. gabor --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django developers" group.
