Hi all,<br>
<br>
Here are the missing features in multibytecodec:<br>
<br>
* support for ``errors != "strict"''.<br>
<br>
* classes MultibyteIncrementalEncoder, MultibyteIncrementalDecoder,<br>
MultibyteStreamReader and MultibyteStreamWriter.<br>
<br>
One reason I didn't implement the classes yet is that I couldn't<br>
understand two points in how they are supposed to work. But it seems<br>
that there are really two bugs, as I've been pointed to:<br>
<a href="http://bugs.python.org/issue12100" target="_blank">http://bugs.python.org/issue12100</a> and<br>
<a href="http://bugs.python.org/issue12171" target="_blank">http://bugs.python.org/issue12171</a> . So the question is if we should<br>
be bug-compatible with Python 2.7 or if we should instead implement<br>
some fixed version.<br>
<br>
I suppose I'm rather for the fixed version, but I'd like to hear some<br>
feedback from people that actually use multibytecodecs. Also, I<br>
wouldn't mind if someone would pick up the work and just do it, either<br>
the classes or ``errors != "strict"'' :-)<br>
<br>
<br>
A bientôt,<br>
<br>
Armin.<br>

</blockquote></div><br>Victor has fixed one of these bugs, so at least I don't think we should be "bug compatible" with it. Also, if people like my idea of trying to do a PyPy 1.5.1 right after CPython 2.7.2 (RC1 scheduled for the 28th) it would be easy to start pulling in the stdlib now to not deal with it.<br>
