yenc encoding?

[Gerson Kurz]

Does someone work on a yenc-encoder/decoder for python? Both "base64"
and "binascii" are there in the python standard library, after all.

Just wondering: Should an implementation for a new encoding follow the
base64-model (that is, have four funcs encode, encodes, decode,
decodes) or the binascii-modell (a2b_yenc,b2a_yenc) or something
totally different altogether?
