I'm not totally up on what you're doing here, but I assume that value
is something like the member's real name.

In this case I think you may want something like

>From Mailman import Utils
...
    def escape(self, value):
        lcset = Utils.GetCharSet(mlist.preferred_language)
        b = unicode(value, lcset)
        ...

I.e. text items relating to a list or a member are normally either
unicodes to begin with or they are encoded in the character set of the
list's preferred language.
