I think a warning at the top of StringIO docs is needed. And it should link to io.BytesIO. Maybe even deprecate StringIO and cStringIO in Python2? StringIO docs: https://docs.python.org/2/library/stringio.html io.BytesIO docs: https://docs.python.org/2/library/io.html#io.BytesIO I would like to see this at the top of StringIO: {{{ Please use io.BytesIO and io.StringIO since this module is not supported in Python3 }}

Python 2 is EOL.
