This seems like too strong a statement:
"Python 2.6 and Python 2.7 support syntax features from Python 3 which for
the most part make a unified code base possible. Many thought that the
unicode_literals future import might make a common source possible, but it
turns out that it's doing more harm than good."While it may be true for some problem domains, such as WSGI apps, it is not true in general, IMO. I use this future import all the time in both libraries and applications and it's almost always helpful.
Cheers, -Barry
