Hi This is mostly a mail to Antonio, but I'm interested in everyone's opinion. Al rlib/runicode.py differs on py3k branch from the default. IMO this is a very very bad idea. This is a push towards more convoluted interpreter/translator interaction rather than less. Also it makes RPython a less defined language rather than more. I see the following options:
* decide utf-8 encoding in RPython is a bad idea alltogether * move codec somewhere else or patch unicodeobject in python 3 and decide to keep the default version on py3k * declare it a temporary hack, but then it confuses people and I'm generally skeptical about the amount of temporary hacks on py3k branch. The one thing I *don't* want to do is to declare "meh, too bad, RPython is a different language on py3k and on default" as long as py3k branch stays as a part of PyPy project.
