Tom Christiansen <tchr...@perl.com> added the comment: Please do not call this "utf-8-java". It is called "cesu-8" per UTS#18 at:
http://unicode.org/reports/tr26/ CESU-8 is *not* a a valid Unicode Transform Format and should not be called UTF-8. It is a real pain in the butt, caused by people who misunderand Unicode mis-encoding UCS-2 into UTF-8, screwing it up. I understand the need to be able to read it, but call it what it is, please. Despite the talk about Lucene, I note that the Perl port of Lucene uses real UTF-8, not CESU-8. ---------- nosy: +tchrist _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue2857> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
