Marc-Andre Lemburg <m...@egenix.com> added the comment: Viktor, I found this reference which has some background information regarding koi8-ru and other cyrillic encodings: http://segfault.kiev.ua/cyrillic-encodings/
"This charset wasn't supported by Ukrainian Internet community due to political reasons; KOI8-U was invented as opposition to KOI8-RU." Provided that resource is correct, it also appears that its inventor Yuri Demchenko now switched to KOI8-U as well: http://staff.science.uva.nl/~demch/ So I guess, we can close this request and leave the codec attached to the ticket for interested parties to download and install if they need it. ---------- status: open -> closed _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue5214> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
