That *is* the reason -- doubling the storage required for Unicode
strings provides no benefit, unless most of the strings you use are in
codepoint ranges which require escaping in UCS2 (which won't be true for
sites using "Western" languages, anyway).

Zope is RAM-hungry enough, without that overhead.

What source version(s) of python have these problems fixed?
 If you build
Python using the default config, it uses UCS2 (which is a better choice
for long-running appservers, anyway).


Why should be UCS2 the better choice (except for the reduced memory usage)?

Hi;
I'm working on installing LDAPUserFolder. The documentation states one
can't retrieve passwords because they're encrypted. Bummer. Well, in that
case, is there a product for sending an email with a link to establish a
new password? I mean, what do we do if the user forgot their pw? TIA,

You write a form where the user can enter its login name. You generate a 
new temporary password, change the password for the user id using the 
standard userfolder API, you send out an email to the user. Done...a 
straight-forward and trivial task.
