[New-bugs-announce] [issue9458] xml.etree.ElementTree.write(): encoding handling problems

[Uli Kunitz]

New submission from Uli Kunitz <uli.kunitz at googlemail.com>:

If one wants to use the encoding parameter of ElementTree.write() the file must be opened with "wb". Without encoding parameter normal files can be used, but the should be opened with the encoding "UTF-8", because otherwise this may create an error.

Probably comparable problems exist with the parser side of things.
