I don't see why they should be. The author clearly knew about the encoding argument to open, they clearly intended for a None value to be given in some cases, and at the time of writing None meant to use a locale-dependent encoding. > We are not discussing about changing default encoding for now. The section "Prepare to change the default encoding to UTF-8" gave me the impression that this was meant as a stepping stone on the way to doing just that. If that was not the intention, my apologies for the misread. regards, Anders _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list -- python-dev@python.org To unsubscribe send an email to python-dev-le...@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman3/lists/python-dev.python.org/ Message archived at https://mail.python.org/archives/list/python-dev@python.org/message/2VWZMIBG2VLASF7NCKDEJ5I22PXWI7D7/ Code of Conduct: http://python.org/psf/codeofconduct/
