It seems to me that they should be `str`, all of them, except possibly URI. I'm unsure exactly how that changes the behavior. ASCII/ASCIILine should have validators to restrict them to ASCII only, reasonably, I don't know if they already do. //Lennart _______________________________________________ Zope-Dev maillist - Zope-Dev@zope.org https://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - https://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce https://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope )
