Saw this in my feedlist the other day, and wanted to share it with the world: MySQL and Python and Unicode. Excellent coverage of the issues making a full toolchain Unicode compliant when using Python and MySQL.

I learned this the ‘hard way’, and I am glad someone came to the same conclusion. I was using a library to get the connection from MySQL, so I had to mod the code to make the “SET NAMES utf8″ call on init. Now I am sorry for not blogging it sooner.

Tahpot, looks like we are covering a lot of the same territory, feel like sharing notes?
