[issue7475] No hint about codecs removed : base64 bz2 hex zlib ...

[flox]

flox <laxyf at yahoo.fr> added the comment:

«Everything you thought you knew about binary data and Unicode
 has changed.»

Reopening for the documentation part.

This "mistake" deserves some words in the documentation:
  docs.python.org/dev/py3k/whatsnew/3.0.html
      #text-vs-data-instead-of-unicode-vs-8-bit

And the conversion may be automated with 2to3, maybe.
