+:pep:`414` - Explicit Unicode literals
+ PEP written by Armin Ronacher.
+
+To ease the transition from Python 2 for Unicode aware Python applications
+that make heavy use of Unicode literals, Python 3.3 once again supports the
+"``u``" prefix for string literals. This prefix has no semantic significance
+in Python 3, it is provided solely to reduce the number of purely mechanical
+changes in migrating to Python 3, making it easier for developers to focus on
+the more significant semantic changes (such as the stricter default
+separation of binary and text data).
