Hi,
bytes % args and bytes.format(args) are requested by Mercurial and Twisted projects. The issue #3982 was stuck because nobody proposed a complete definition of the "new" features. Here is a try as a PEP.
Very nice, thanks. If I was to make a blasphemous suggestion I would even target it for Python 3.4. (No, seriously, this is a big issue - see the recent discussion by Armin - and the big names involved show that it is a major holdup of 3.x uptake.) It would of course depend a lot on how much code from unicode formatting can be retained or adapted as opposed to a rewrite from scratch. cheers, Georg
