Not true. PEP 293 was written and designed by Walter Dörwald. > so even if > this is not explicitly written down somewhere, you can take my > word for it. If the design was specified in writing somewhere, I would probably challenge it as obsolete. If it isn't described anywhere, I'll have to ignore it. > I want to avoid any such confusion with Python codecs and don't > understand why you are making a problem out of this. Because utf8b (or, perhaps "UTF-8b") is the official name for this algorithm: http://hyperreal.org/~est/utf-8b/ Regards, Martin _______________________________________________ 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
