We have no Python versions less than 2.4 in the tree, no one depends on this port, it's unmaintained, last release was 8 years ago (Nov 2003) [1] so i don't see any reasons to hold it in the tree. Please mark it DEPRECATED and remove in one month. [1] http://cjkpython.berlios.de/#iconvcodec >How-To-Repeat: >Fix: >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
