I don't know how that related to WSGI but it should be noted that Python 3.2 comes with two synchronized views of the environment: os.environ (str -> str mapping) and os.environb (bytes -> bytes mapping). See http://docs.python.org/dev/library/os.html#os.environ Also, the way os.environ is decoded from bytes values involves the "surrogateescape" error handler, which ensures that non-decodeable bytes get their own unicode escape sequences, and can get re-encoded losslessly: http://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0383/ Regards Antoine. _______________________________________________ Web-SIG mailing list Web-SIG@python.org Web SIG: http://www.python.org/sigs/web-sig Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/web-sig/archive%40mail-archive.com
