Hi;

I just subscribed this list, so i don't know whether this discussed
before. If so, sorry.

I want to know status of
http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-dev/2004-December/050193.html
this thread. Will python remove wctype functions support from its core?
If it will, what about locale-dependent case conversation functions? 

Without this support python behaves wrong in tr_TR.UTF-8 locale. As a
side effect, this problem reported to Gentoo Linux to add a wctype
support to current python ebuild
( http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=69322 ), but they don't want to
add any removed feature to their ebuilds, and also not break anything
because portage is built on python.

So :), what will the feature of wctype?

Yours
