Just in case you're still thirsty for more info on Unicode... :) Min Ragan-Kelley just did a great summary writeup of these questions from a low-level perspective: for pyzmq we need to handle strings (i.e. unicode) at the python level, but efficiently and unambiguously communicate with a networking layer written in C. We spent a lot of time thinking about this, and his writeup is a great resource for anyone who needs to look at this from a C/low-level angle: http://ptsg.berkeley.edu/~minrk/zmq/unicode.html This adds a view that isn't made very explicit in any of the docs I'd previously sent.
