I've lowered the priority on a bunch of priority 7 bugs for Python 2.3, mostly because I think there's nothing we can do before the final release, and they don't seem to be show stoppers. The last one is 775985 <http://python.org/sf/775985> but I'm nervous about this one. I haven't been able to reproduce this on Linux, and it seems a fairly obscure bug (reportedly $LANG envar has to be empty). I'm strongly inclined to lower it to priority 6 and leave it for a later patch release. Comments? -Barry

It's a Solaris bug, and my patch is a work-around. It only matters for printing Unicode objects on the terminal, so feel free to defer this past 2.3. Regards, Martin
