TASK DESCRIPTION Pywikibot faced some unicode issues in 2010-11 experienced with interwiki.py primarily. This task is created to capture some of the history of that, as it is a key factor in some versions being listed as unsupported on the support matrix at https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Pywikibot/Version_table [[http://bugs.python.org/issue10254 | Python issue 10254]] was initially raised as http://sourceforge.net/p/pywikipediabot/bugs/1246 , and the fix was merged into Python 2.6.5 and 2.6.6 . The fix appeared in 2.7.2, but was not backported into 2.7.1 http://sourceforge.net/p/pywikipediabot/bugs/1382/ was a related issue, but the solution was "upgrade to 2.7.2", so there is little information about the cause or solution. It is listed as the reason that Python 2.5 was de-supported.
