Martin v. Löwis added the comment: I don't see any point in merely bringing the codecs back, without any convenience API to use them. If I need to do
import codecs result = codecs.getencoder("base64").encode(data) I don't think people would actually prefer this over import base64 result = base64.encodebytes(data) I't (IMO) only the convenience method (.encode) that made people love these codecs. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue7475> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
