Martin, I must be missing some context: what's your master plan with all these codec patches and open tickets ? They are very hard to follow and you're making design changes which need more review and discussion than can easily be done on a few tickets. Regarding the patch: The doc patch seems to just change ordering of sentences and paragraphs. Without additional explanation, it's difficult to determine whether you are changing semantics or not. The "strict" error change is not correct. Most codecs raise a UnicodeError (which is a ValueError subclass) and code expects codecs that work on Unicode to return a UnicodeError, not a ValueError. Only codecs that do not work on Unicode are allowed to raise ValueErrors. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue20132> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
