The big issue with Python2 is that it's easy to accidentally mix unicode and byte strings during development, and it works fine until some user has a non-ascii home directory or similar. You get bugtracker conversations like "it crashes on XP but works on Vista", "I can't find this traceback file you mentioned", "what is a file system encoding?", etc. Or you write a logfile parser and it works great for half a year, until in March where you get an UnicodeEncodeError because March is "März" in German, the only month with an Umlaut. |
