Are you sure that you fully understood RFC 2849 before doing this? Which version of python-ldap are you using? > I really need to properly handle reading, manipulating and > writing non ascii data to solve this... Module ldif in python-ldap does that for you based on RFC 2849. Without seeing your code using it I cannot tell what's wrong. > Shame there is no ldap module (with the ldifwriter) in Python 3. 1. The module ldif is stand-alone. So you could easily make it available for Python 3. 2. "Shame" is the wrong term here. Personally I currently have no requirement to use Python 3 and I'm quite busy with other things. So contributors are welcome. But they should be willing to do some serious work giving continous support - not only a half-baken patch. Ciao, Michael. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
