I like to follow Guido's advice and change the code as following:

* replace PyBytes with PyByteArray * replace PyString with PyBytes * rename bytesobject.[ch] to bytearrayobject.[ch] * rename stringobject.[ch] to bytesobject.[ch] * add a new file stringobject.h which contains the aliases PyString -> PyBytes +1 Do you need any help?

I've renamed the functions and modules. Can you help me with updating the C API docs? In Python 2.6 the docs must still use PyString but you can add a note that PyBytes_ works, too.
