Actually, Unicode handling is broken on Python 2, and works just fine on Python 3. I'm also a Russian user :) Your code doesn't make any sense. Care to comment

Your code doesn't make any sense. Care to comment on what it means?
Guido didn't do us any favors with his migration strategy, but Python 3.4 is a substantially better and more modern language, so I would suggest developing on it (it's supported out of the box on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS, for example). It's true that app platform providers have not caught up yet, though.
- dekhn 12y agoYeah. I moved all code dealing with Unicode (in particular, parsing iTunes track names) to Python 3. That was the one part of the language that worked well for me- instead of utf8 codec hell, things just worked.
