Thank you for the feedback. I will elaborate a little bit on the reasons and thoughts behind the pull request: Since RFC 2640, the industry standard within FTP Clients is UTF-8 (see e.g. FileZilla here: https://wiki.filezilla-project.org/Character_Encoding, or WinSCP here: https://winscp.net/eng/docs/faq_utf8). Given this, I believe the majority of the users that have not investigated the code wrongly assumes UTF-8 encoding for ftplib as well (as it is now). I am new to contributing, and not sure, how much deprecation warnings are used (I simply followed the previous encoding change on ftplib), so I will change it based on the feedback. However, shouldn't it be a FutureWarning, so it will be reported by default at initialisation? ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue39380> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
