For Py3K, I would be in favor of consolidating things, making interfaces consistent, and probably re-homing the modules under a top-level package.
But isn't that what the codecs module is for? If cleaning up the API is going to happen shouldn't be to add whatever encoders/decoders that codecs is missing to replace these modules? -Brett
