Well yay. Django's test suite (1242 tests) runs with just one failure on
the 2.7 alpha 2 level, and that looks to be likely
In testing some existing code with the 2.7 alpha release, I've run into:
TypeError: Unicode-objects must be encoded before hashing
when the existing code tries to pass unicode objects to hashlib.sha1 and
hashlib.md5. This is, I believe, due to changes made for issue 3745:

Also, I really dislike the for/else ambiguity "butterflies".
When is the else after a loop executed?
1. When the loop isn't entered at all.
2. When the loop termin

[Originally posted to python-list but on further reflection and some
feedback I think it might be more appropriate here.]
I noticed when trying out Python's 2.6b2 release that the repr of Decimal
has changed since 2.5. On 2.5:
Python 2.5.1 (r251:54863, Mar 7 2008, 04:10:12)
[GCC 4.1.3 20070929
