Hello all,
In the Tools/ directory (py3k) we have a tool/directory called "unicode". The description in Tools/README is:
unicode Tools used to generate unicode database files for Python 2.0 (by Fredrik Lundh).
As described this is not at all useful for Python 3.2. I'm removing the "for Python 2.0" from the description, but I would rather remove the tool altogether.
If someone knows if this tool is still used/useful then please let us know how the description should best be updated. If there are no replies I'll remove it.
All the best,
Michael Foord

If you are talking about Tools/unicode/, this is definitely a very useful tool used to generate unicodedata and encoding modules from raw unicode.org files.

The description currently reads "Tools used to generate unicode database files". I'll update it to read:
"tool used to generate unicodedata and encoding modules from raw unicode.org files"

"tool used to generate unicodedata and encoding modules from rawunicode.org files"
Make that "Tools for generating unicodedata and codecs from unicode.org and other mapping files".
The scripts in that dir are not just one tool, but several tools needed to maintain the Unicode database in Python as well as generate new codecs from mapping files.

Thanks Marc-Andre. I'll add you and Martin as maintainers in the README description as well.
