I'm trying to write a custom bittorent tracker, and the one of the main parameters (info_hash) is getting mangled in django, at least from what I can see.
here is the URL for testing http://127.0.0.1:8000/test/?uploaded=0&compact=1&numwant=200&passkey=1234&info_hash=%EF%BF%BDm%EF%BF%BDmfD%D8%9A%EF%BF%BD%EF%BF%BD%C7%86%EF%BF%BD8%EF%BF%BD&event=started&downloaded=0&key=npmqfwpphy&corrupt=0&requirecrypto=0&peer_id=-TR1110-bkgrkxbnfwko&port=51413&supportcrypto=1&left=0 Here is what the META data shows: QUERY_STRING 'uploaded=0&compact=1&numwant=200&passkey=1234&info_hash=%EF%BF%BDm%EF %BF%BDmfD%D8%9A%EF%BF%BD%EF%BF%BD%C7%86%EF%BF%BD8%EF%BF %BD&event=started&downloaded=0&key=npmqfwpphy&corrupt=0&requirecrypto=0&peer_id=- TR1110-bkgrkxbnfwko&port=51413&supportcrypto=1&left=0' but here is what the request.GET['info_hash'] returns: info_hash u'\ufffdm\ufffdmfD\u061a\ufffd\ufffd\u01c6\ufffd8\ufffd' Hopefully this is a simple something I'm just missing.
