[Python-Dev] Japanese Codecs

[M.-A. Lemburg]

Python currently supports lots of different code pages and
other more specific codecs. I was wondering what your thoughts
on this are: should we proceed to include an even wider range
of codecs or limit the available number to an absolute minimum ?

I'm asking this, because Tamito KAJIYAMA wrote a set of
codecs for EUC-JP and Shift_JIS which would probably
be very useful for Japanese Python users -- I just don't
know how many there are and whether inclusion of an extra
650k of source code would hurt or not.

Thoughts ?
