While the user-visible API of the new module is compatible with the old one, it's likely that the version of the underlying database library has changed. To convert from the old library, run the db2pickle.py script using the old version of Python to convert it to a pickle file. After upgrading Python, run the pickle2db.py script using the new version of Python to reconstitute your database. For ...

    ...too much of a modification of the design, but some discussion led to a version that preserved the full shape of the Python logo (with some permitted perspective added, as if logo was stamped on side of a crate). The kind Jonathan Hosmer <jon at pythonforios.com> with whom we worked out the name "Python for iOS" for his Python distribution (modified from the confusing iPython, which is similar to the older IPython shell) decided to offer to PSF members complimentary licenses to hi...

This is the default protocol. It intentionally cannot be unpickled by Python 2.x. When a pickle written by Python 2.x contains an (8-bit) str instance, this is now decoded to a (Unicode) str instance. The encoding used to do this defaults to ASCII, but can be overridden via two new keyword arguments to the U...
