If you don't need unicode_literals, what's the problem? Porting the WebOb code sucked. It's only about 5K lines of code but the porting effort took me about 80 hours. Some of the problem is certainly my own idiocy, but some of it is just because straddling code across Python 2 and Python 3 currently requires that you change lots and lots of code for suspect benefit. - C _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
