The issue isn't circular. It's been patched and tested, then a whole lot of people agreed including Guido. Then you and Bill wanted the bytes functionality back. So I wrote that in there too, and Bill at least said that was sufficient. On Thu, Jul 31, 2008, Bill Janssen wrote: > > But: OK, OK, I yield.

Guido okayed it. I made all the changes the community suggested. What more needs to be discussed here?
