There's one thing that I forgot to add to PEP 3137. It's the removal of the basestring type. I think this is a reasonable thing to do. Christian Heimes has a patch that does this cleanly. Anyone objecting, please speak up now!
And, quite separately, we will need a common base type for bytes and buffer. I think that should be an ABC in the collections module though, which simply registers bytes and buffer. Any suggestions for a name?
